Influenza Virus Transmission Is Dependent on Relative Humidity and Temperature
Figure 2
Transmission of Influenza Virus from Guinea Pig to Guinea Pig Is Dependent on Relative Humidity
Titers of influenza virus in nasal wash samples are plotted as a function of day p.i. Overall transmission rate and the RH and temperature conditions of each experiment are stated underneath the graph. Titers from intranasally inoculated guinea pigs are represented as dashed lines; titers from exposed guinea pigs are shown with solid lines. Virus titrations were performed by plaque assay on Madin Darby canine kidney cells.
