FIG. 5.

The time variation of the normalized OCR (OCR(t)/OCR(n), %) of DENV-infected BHK-21 cells at m.o.i. = 1 and with (a) 1 mg/ml or (b) 0.001 mg/ml carrageenan treatment in the pre-treatment, virucide, and post-treatment groups. “virus alone” and “cell alone” denote the DENV-infected cells without treatment with carrageenan and uninfected cells, respectively. (c) The inhibition of DENV-infected BHK-21 cells at m.o.i. = 1 in the absence (virus alone) or presence of increasing concentrations of carrageenan, ranging from 0.001 to 1 mg/ml, in the pre-treatment, virucide, and post-treatment groups. The inhibitory effect was normalized and expressed as OCR(t = 7 hpi)/OCR(n), %). The values of OCR(t = 7 hpi)/OCR(n) for 1 and 0.001 mg/ml carrageenan treatment are denoted by a dashed line in (a) and (b). OCR(n) denoted the averaged OCR value of normal cells without viral infection and carrageenan treatment. Each value is the mean of triplicate assays ± standard deviation.
