Virus detection by short read high throughput sequencing in a high virus low cellular background.

ABSTRACT: The safety of all biological products includes demonstrating the absence of adventitious viruses by testing various types of samples at different stages of the manufacturing process. Seven laboratories evaluated short-read high-throughput sequencing (HTS) for sensitivity and breadth of adventitious virus detection using viruses with distinct physicochemical and genome properties. These five viruses are currently designated as CBER NGS Virus Reagents and include: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV; or human herpes virus 4), feline leukemia virus (FeLV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), mammalian orthoreovirus type 1 (Reo1), and porcine circovirus type 1 (PCV1). To evaluate adventitious virus detection in a biological material with a high production virus titer and low cellular background, the 5 viru
