Fig. 2From: Effective inactivation of Nipah virus in serum samples for safe processing in low-containment laboratoriesHeat inactivation of NiV in 90% human serum. Aliquots (200 μL) of NiV (3.0 × 106 TCID50/mL) were treated at 56 °C for the indicated times. NiV remaining in the samples were tested for the determination of infectious titers in Vero cells. The virus titers (TCID50/mL) in the treated samples were determined as described in the Materials and Methods section. Heat treatments were performed in triplicate. The limit of detection (1.39 × 102 TCID50/mL) is shown as a dashed lineBack to article page
