Abstract

Flow cytometry analysis was applied to the measurement of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) induction which is used as a short term assay for anti-tumor promoters. The data obtained by measurement with flow cytometry were parallel with those of the fluorescence microscopic method. Flow cytometry is rapid, quantitative and should be applicable for the EBV activating test.
