Characterization of Ad vector stock by PCR.

<p>HCV genes core, F, NS3, NS4, NS5a or NS5b are not amplified. First panel shows the DNA ladder, followed by agarose gel electrophoresis of PCR products obtained with HCV core, F, NS3, NS4, NS5a and NS5b specific primers. HEK lysate supernatant and rAd-HCV vectors were used as negative and positive controls. Data are representative of 2–3 repeated experiments.
