Figure 2

Immunofluorescence assay (IFA) detection of viral antigen on CHIKV infected cells. Vero cells are infected with serially diluted CHIKV (expressed as PFU/ml) for 2 days and subjected to immunofluorescence staining with anti-alphavirus antibody. The CHIKV-infected cells are stained green and the cell nuclei are stained blue with the nuclear stain, DAPI. Mock-infected control and isotype control (cells are stained with secondary anti-mouse antibody conjugated with FITC) are included to ensure the specificity of the assay.
