Figure 5. Contact transmission of rH1N1 (A), pBJ09 (B), Triple-1222 (C), Eurasian-204 (D) and hTJ15 (E) viruses in guinea pigs.

Figure 5

Four guinea pigs were intranasally inoculated with 104.0 PFU of virus and each animal was housed in a separate cage. At 24 h p.i., a naïve guinea pig was placed in the same cage with each inoculated guinea pig. Virus titers in nasal washes were plotted as a function of time post-inoculation. Titers of intranasally inoculated animals are represented by dashed lines and solid squares; virus titers of exposed guinea pigs are shown with solid lines and solid triangles. The limit of virus detection was 10 PFU/mL.
