Adeno Virus Model
Product Code : JC-BE-5224
The Adeno Virus Model (SKU JC-BE-5224) is a enlarged virus structure teaching model depicting structure of an adenovirus. Adenovirus has an icosahedral capsid of twenty triangular faces built from hexons, with pentons at the twelve vertices from which fibre proteins project to attach to host cells, as the model shows. As a adenovirus model, it gives schools, colleges and medical and life science institutes a reusable aid for teaching icosahedral virus structure without a preserved specimen.
Specifications
The listing describes a enlarged virus structure teaching model depicting structure of an adenovirus, recommended for biology, microbiology and virology teaching; size, material, base and mounting are not stated and are confirmed on the quotation.

Frequently asked questions
What are hexons and pentons on the Adeno Virus Model?
Hexons are the protein units forming the flat triangular faces; pentons sit at each of the twelve vertices and carry the fibre proteins.
Who uses this model?
It is used in biology, microbiology and virology teaching at schools, colleges, medical and paramedical institutes.
Are the size and material stated?
No. The listing does not give size, material or mounting; these are confirmed on the quotation.
