摘要：

A method by which virus penetration through condoms can be tested with simple, inexpensive equipment is described. The method uses phi-X174 bacteriophage as the challenge virus and physiologically relevant pressure. Penetration by 0.1-mu-l (or less) of challenge suspension can be readily detected. As examples, latex and natural-membrane condoms were examined.
