Comparison of detection of cell-free infection by LuSIAs using CC81-GREMG-CAT1 and CC81-GREMG. a) CC81-GREMG-CAT1 and CC81-GREMG cells (4 × 105 cells/well) were cultured with or without culture supernatant (containing 94 ng/well of BLV p24 protein) collected from FLK-BLV cells. The cells were cultured including 20 ng/mL of Hoechst 33342 (Sigma-Aldrich) and fluorescent syncytia are observed daily with an EVOS2 fluorescence microscope and analyzed with HCS studio software. The scale bar (white bars) indicate 275 μm. b Fluorescent syncytia were detected by LuSIAs using CC81-GREMG-CAT1 and CC81-GREMG at 3 days post-cultivation. The results indicate the mean and standard deviation of three independent experiments
