TABLE 1.

Neuraminidase inhibition by oseltamivir carboxylate and zanamivir

Virus IC50 (nM)a
Oseltamivir carboxylate Zanamivir
A/1621(H7N9)b (n = 1) 0.45 ± 0.048 0.58 ± 0.010
NA I222 (n = 3)c 0.51 ± 0.12 0.50 ± 0.24
NA I222T (n = 10)d 4.1 ± 0.87 1.2 ± 0.41
a

Drug concentrations that reduced viral NA activity by 50% (IC50) in a fluorescence-based assay with the MUNANA substrate. Values are means ± SD from 1, 3, and 10 duplicate sample analyses.

b

Virus used for inoculation of mallards.

c

Virus isolated from fecal samples during the experiment, with wild-type isoleucine (I) at NA residue 222.

d

Virus isolated from fecal samples during the experiment, with a threonine (T) substitution at NA residue 222.
