SARS-CoV-2 neutralization assay. Vero E6 cells (2 × 104 cells/well) in 96-well-plates were infected with 50 pfu with various dilutions of pooled sera collected before (PRE) or after three immunizations (indicated as 1st, 2nd, and 3rd). Virus infection was monitored by CyQuant LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) Cytotoxicity Assay, which measures the level of cytosolic LDH released into the culture medium when cells die from virus infection. The assay was done in triplicate. Results from three vaccine groups are shown: (A) Zn-chitosan, (B) Alhydrogel, and (C) Adju-Phos. (D) Brightfield photomicrographs of cell cultures from the neutralization assay. Results from the Alhydrogel group (for indicated immunizations and dilutions) are shown as examples.
