PG - 121-2 AB - OBJECTIVE: To study the viricidal effect of rough extracts of camptothecine fruit on herpes simplex virus-2 (HSV-2). METHODS: Rough extracts with different concentrations were mixed with HSV-2. The mixture was incubated at 37 degrees C for 4 h or at 4 degrees C overnight, adsorbed on monolayer cells of BGM for 1.5 h, and cultured at 37 degrees C for 7 d. RESULTS: The BGM of the test group did not reveal cytopathic effects (CPE), while the control group showed CPE under microscope observation. CONCLUSION: Camptothecine has a strong viricidal effect on HSV-2.
