In order
to maintain reference stocks of viruses and provide facilities capable
of conducting viral sequencing, two global Measles Strain Banks have been
established. The Measles Virus Section laboratory of the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, and Central Public
Health Laboratory (CPHL) in London, UK, were selected to serve this purpose.
Upon request,
viral sequencing and analysis can be provided for measles virus characterization
as well as storage of viral strains.
