Susceptibility of influenza viruses to hypothiocyanite and hypoiodite produced by lactoperoxidase in a cell-free system
Fig 7
Comparison of influenza A and B strains for their susceptibilities to the virucidal effects of LPO. The nine IAV and three IBV influenza strains tested were compared regarding their susceptibilities to OSCN- (left panel), to OI- (middle panel) or their LPO substrate preference ratios (right panel) in the cell-free system. This figure does not show new experimental data but presents new analysis of experimental results obtained in Figs 2–6. The gray area highlights the only significant difference in the figure. Mean+/-S.E.M., Mann-Whitney test. Ns, not significant; *, p<0.05. OSCN-, hypothiocyanite; OI-, hypoiodite; IAV, influenza A virus; IBV, influenza B virus.
