From: Iota-Carrageenan is a potent inhibitor of rhinovirus infection
Effect of Iota carageenan on the replication of HRVstrains 1A, 2, 8, 14, 16, 39, 83 and 84 on human nasal epithelial cells. HNep cells were grown in 96-well plates were infected with different HRV strains (indicated at the top of each panel; 0,1 TCID50/cell) in the presence of Iota-Carrageenan at the concentrations indicated at the x-axis. 30 minutes after infection the inoculum was removed and medium containing Iota-Carrageenan with the same concentration was added. Viral titers in the supernatants of infected cells were determined after 48 h by TCID50 assay on HeLa cells (y-axis). Bars represent means from four parallel experiments, standard deviations are indicated.
