HI
i transfected adenovector to hek293 cell line. i don't know Adenovirus CPE.
this picture is hek 293 cell line 8 days post transfection. do you observe any CPE?
No. Does your vector express any fluorescent marker (i.e. GFP, RFP) which you might be able to observe by fluorescence microscopy to determine if your transfections were successful? Based on my experience, this is not classic CPE by any means.
cells look more or less intact. With CPE cells normally clump, (swelling and clumping very typical of adenovirus), detach themselves. Try varying concentrations of adenovirus Hope this helps
Swelling and clumping is a CPE where host cells swell significantly. Once enlarged, the cells clump together in clusters. Eventually, the cells become so large that they detach. This type of CPE is characteristic of adenoviruses
