Attenuation of CYZ-yfs and CYZ-hs variants in suckling mouse neurovirulence test compared to YF 17D vaccine benchmark control. 5-day old ICR suckling mice were inoculated IC with graded doses of viruses (the intended doses were −1 to 4 log10 PFU for CYZs and wt Puerto Rico-2015 ZIKV, 1 to 3 log10 PFU for ChimeriVax-JE, and −1 to 2 log10 PFU for YF 17D). The Mock control group was inoculated with diluent, MEM supplemented with FBS. Mortalities are shown at doses determined by back-titration of the inoculates. LD50 values of CYZs vs. YFV-17D were statistically different (P = 0.012; Mann Whitney test).
