From: BLV-CoCoMo-qPCR: Quantitation of bovine leukemia virus proviral load using the CoCoMo algorithm
Correlation between proviral load calculated by BLV-CoCoMo-qPCR and syncytium formation. (A) Using BLV-CoCoMo-qPCR, the proviral loads from five BLV-infected cattle were calculated and shown as provirus copy number per 1 × 105 cells. A syncytium formation assay using CC81 indicator cells was used to count the number of syncytia per 1 × 105 peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from five BLV-infected cattle. Values represent the mean ± standard deviation (SD) of results from three samples. (B) Scatter chart is indicated the correlation between BLV copy numbers which were determined by BLV-CoCoMo-qPCR and the number of syncytia.
