Figure 6From: Yellow fever virus envelope protein expressed in insect cells is capable of syncytium formation in lepidopteran cells and could be used for immunodetection of YFV in human seraYellow fever MAC-ELISA assay. In this modified IgM antibody capture ELISA (MAC-ELISA) the antigens tested were mock infected Tn5B cells, Tn5B cells infected with AcMNPV and Tn5B cells infected with vSynYFE. (A) and (B): Two different yellow fever-infected patients sera were used for the detection of antigens, they are known to react positively with yellow fever virus. The experiment was repeated 3 times.Back to article page
