Fig 5. Virus factory formation during ECTV infection is more robust in BSC1 compared to RK13 cells.

Fig 5

(A) Cells were grown on sterile glass coverslips, infected (MOI = 5) with ECTV, and fixed 24 hours later. Cell nuclei (N) and virus factories (F) were visualized following DAPI staining. Representative images are shown for both uninfected and infected cells. All images are at 1,000x total magnification. (B) One hundred randomly viewed cells within each infection condition were scored as either being positive or negative for the presence of a virus factory as compared to the uninfected control. The bars depict the average values and the error bars represent the standard deviations of three independent trials. Statistical analysis [performed using GraphPad Prism software (version 5.0a)] was carried out using a one-way ANOVA (nonparametric; Kruskal-Wallis) followed by a Dunns test for multiple comparisons. * denotes a p value <0.05.
