Table 2.

Evidence of viable virus (pfu/mL) and viral DNA (CT value by real time PCR) prescence in CAST/EiJ mice samples from Phase 1 (animals challenged with Variola virus at 8–9 weeks of age).

* Challenged groups, in plaque forming units (pfu).

˟ pi = days post inoculation, day of sample collection.

ˠ Duplicates of the positive values, number of cycles needed to cross the threshold (CT).

" Viable virus content per mL, in pfu. BLD = below limit of detection.

Samples containing viable virus are shaded in grey.

Samples from gamma irradiated VARV and vehicle (PBS + .05%BSA) groups, did not show evidence of detectable virus either by real time PCR or Tissue Culture.
