Hi everyone,

I'm planning to do in vivo virus infection on mice. my first step is to use murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV).

I read a lot of paper they have the virus isolated from salivary gland extract of infected mice. This procedure maybe too technical for me. I'm not sure I can do well in the dissection. Do you think cell supernatant (e.g. 3T3 cells infected with MCMV) is good for infection by injection too?

Thank you so much!
