a Timeline for inoculation of NHP with 106 ffu DENV2ic(2NHP), DENV4ic(2NHP) or DENV2/4EDIIic(4NHP) and blood collection for quantitative reverse transcript-polymerase chain reaction (qrt-pcr) and FRNT analysis. b Replication kinetics of DENV2/4EDII is temporally similar to parental DENV2 and DENV4. Average copies/ ml sera, as determined by qrt-pcr, is shown for DENV2, DENV4 and the four DENV2/4EDII inoculated NHP. Copies/ml was measured in triplicate for each NHP, then combined with other NHP within the treatment group This data graphed by individual NHP can be seen in supplementary Fig. 2A. Hashed line represent the limit of quantitation (LOQ) for each virus. Mean values + /- SD are shown. c DENV2/4EDII sera neutralized DENV2 and DENV4. Individual Vero-81 FRNT EC50 values are shown for each NHP with a bar representing the median value. EC50 values were calculated using 8 point curves performed in duplicate.
