Figure 1From: Studies of inactivation mechanism of non-enveloped icosahedral virus by a visible ultrashort pulsed laserInactivation of MNV-1 by the visible ultrashort pulsed laser. (a) Graphs of plaque forming units (PFU)/ml for control (without laser irradiation) and laser irradiated MNV-1 purified samples. (b) Graphs of plaque forming units (PFU)/ml for control (without laser irradiation) and laser irradiated MNV-1 unpurified samples. The USP laser is operated at a wavelength of 425 nm with a pulse width of 100 fs, a repetition rate of 80 MHz, and an average power of 120 mWs. The laser exposure time was 2 h. S.D error bars are small to be readily observed.Back to article page
