Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Virus
  • DNA
  • Gene

His primary areas of study are Virus, Virology, Biochemistry, Molecular biology and Antibody. His work deals with themes such as Virulence, RNA, DNA, Acridine orange and Tissue culture, which intersect with Virus. Joseph L. Melnick has included themes like Cell nucleus and Microbiology in his Virology study.

The Cell nucleus study which covers Hamster that intersects with Papovavirus. In the field of Biochemistry, his study on Proflavine overlaps with subjects such as Neutral red, Toluidine and Phosphotungstic acid. In his research, Nucleolus is intimately related to Antigen, which falls under the overarching field of Molecular biology.

His most cited work include:

  • THE ASSOCIATION OF HERPESVIRUS TYPE 2 AND CARCINOMA OF THE UTERINE CERVIX (196 citations)
  • Herpesvirus type 2: association with carcinoma of the cervix. (186 citations)
  • Papova virus group. (147 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Joseph L. Melnick spends much of his time researching Virology, Virus, Antigen, Papovavirus and Immunology. His studies deal with areas such as RNA, Virus Cultivation, Tissue culture and Antibody as well as Virology. His Virus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Molecular biology, DNA, Microbiology and Pathology.

His Antigen study combines topics in areas such as Cytosine and Hamster. The various areas that Joseph L. Melnick examines in his Papovavirus study include Simian and Transplantation. His research in the fields of Vaccination, Immunity and Viral disease overlaps with other disciplines such as Rubella virus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (61.02%)
  • Virus (49.15%)
  • Antigen (19.49%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1975-2015)?

  • Virology (61.02%)
  • Antimicrobial (2.54%)
  • Chromatography (4.24%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Virology, Antimicrobial, Chromatography, Viral disease and Immunology. Virology is a component of his Virus, Viral hepatitis, Replication and Papovavirus studies. He combines subjects such as Antibody and Antigen with his study of Virus.

The concepts of his Antimicrobial study are interwoven with issues in Organic acid, Chelation and Chemical engineering. His work on Sample as part of general Chromatography research is often related to Aqueous solution, thus linking different fields of science. The Viral disease study combines topics in areas such as Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Isolation, Peripheral blood mononuclear cell, Immunopathology and Titration.

Between 1975 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • Staining and analysis of bacteria (36 citations)
  • Methods for detecting and quantifying occult blood (18 citations)
  • The use of antiviral compounds in analyzing the sequential steps in the replication of SV40 papovavirus. (16 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Virus
  • DNA
  • Gene

Joseph L. Melnick mainly focuses on Virology, Sample, Membrane surface, Suspension and Test sample. His research related to Viral hepatitis, Replication and Papovavirus might be considered part of Virology. His Sample study is concerned with the larger field of Chromatography.
