Quantitative RT-PCR analyses of ZIKV viral load after HTR-8/SVneo cells infection and treatments efficiency. fter ZIKV MR766 strain incubation. Tratments were made with DMEM/F12 solution (Control), and with 10 μg mL⁻¹ of whole fruit extract (STWFE) or peel extract (STPE) 1 h prior viral incubation for MR766 strain (A) or PE243 strain (B) of 1 MOI for 1 h. After culture medium renewal, cells were left for 24 h and their supernatants were analysed to observe ZIKV viral load. As such, we had higher viral load in the PE243 strain group, with great reduction of in the groups treated with STFWE or STPE. The bar graphs represent the mean values ± S.E.M.; n = 3.
