An optimized method for counting viral particles using electron microscopy by B. N. Zaitsev, O. S. Taranov, N. B. Rudometova, N. S. Shcherbakova, A. A. Ilyichev, L. I. Karpenko

“…The number of viral particles on the whole surface of the filter (a square of 4 сm2) was 4×107 virions, the initial concentration of pseudoviruses in the sample was 2×106 per 1 ml (4×107 particles per 20 ml). As a result, the developed method enables one to evade the major disadvantage of quantitative determination of viruses using electron microscopy regarding a high detection threshold (concentration of particles 107/ml). …”
