| Method |
P.282 left column bottom paragraph: "To distinguish whether the parasites were cellular or viral in nature, [researchers] imaged their propagation
in axenic Acanthamoeba cultures over an
entire multiplication cycle, starting from purified particles." |
| Comments |
P.282 left column bottom paragraph: "The replication cycle of Pandoraviruses
in Acanthamoeba castellanii lasts from 10 to 15 hours and is initiated by the internalization of individual particles via phagocytic vacuoles. The particles then empty the content of their internal
compartment into the Acanthamoeba cytoplasm through their apical pore." |
