Immunofluorescence of ZIKV and CHIKV single- and co-infections in mammalian and mosquito cells.

<p>(A) Vero and (B) C6/36 cells were infected with ZIKV^SUR, CHIKV³⁷⁹⁹⁷ or both. At 48 hpi the monolayers were fixed, permeabilized, stained with antibodies for ZIKV-E (pan-Flavivirus α-E (4G2)), CHIKV-E2 and Hoechst33258 (details in <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0005654#sec005" target="_blank">Materials and methods</a>) and visualized by immunofluorescence. Magnifications are indicated in each picture. Bottom panels indicate zoomed and merged images of co-infected cells.
