Mice receive a two-dose regimen of the indicated vaccine 4 weeks apart. Serum samples from individual mice (10 per group) are collected 30 days post-boost. Nd=not done.
Samples are tested for HI and neutralization antibody activity against DK/96-wt virus. Geometric mean titers are shown as the reciprocal of the highest dilution of serum that completely inhibits hemagglutination (HI) or that neutralizes 100 PFU of infectious virus (neut). There is no significance in titers between DK/96-wt and DK/96-Hu groups by two-way ANOVA and Bonferroni post-test.
