Figure 1.

Side-by-side comparison of virus reduction neutralization test (VRNT) and focus reduction neutralization test (FRNT) methods. In this figure, day 1 is considered plate seeding rather than assay day 1. Differences include plate format (96-well for VRNT and 24-well for FRNT), infection time and secondary antibody and detection. Virus reduction neutralization test detection relies on fluorescent stained cells and cytometer counting; FRNT relies on peroxidase substrate and foci formation for manual foci counting.
