a

Peak titer on any day of the study. For the RT-PCR assay, units are PFU equivalents per milliliter. For plaque titration, units are PFU per milliliter. Monkeys were infected on day 0 with 106 PFU of DEN1WP, injected subcutaneously in the subscapular area. Virus in serial serum samples was detected and measured either by a quantitative, validated RT-PCR or by direct plaque formation on LLCMK2 cells. Values in parentheses are total number of days of viremia; values in brackets are days of the study on which viremia was observed. ND, not detected.

b

Immunized with DEN1mutF at 105 PFU 17 months prior to challenge.

c

Immunized with DEN1mutF at 103 PFU 17 months prior to challenge.
