SARS-CoV-2 replication kinetics in the trigeminal ganglion and the brain. The titers of infectious virus in brain and TG were calculated and expressed as log₁₀ TCID₅₀ virus per gram of tissue and were plotted as the mean of two different cohorts (n = 10 animals per timepoint). Virus titers in the brain (blue) and TG (green) were assessed using a standard Vero-E6 cell-based TCID₅₀ assay. * p < 0.05, by Student’s t-test, comparing brain and TG. Error bars represent standard errors of the mean (SEM). These were the combined data of two different independent experiments.
