Fig. 1. Time-course of infection of tamarins with GBV-B. Fifty µl of GBV-B-positive B242 tamarin serum (containing 7.5x106 GE) was used for intravenous inoculation of B131 and B132 tamarins. Euthanasia was performed at week 28 p.i. ALT levels (shaded area) are reported for weekly bleeds till week 16, data about subsequent negative bleeds are not plotted. Viral RNA titre was determined by qPCR (bars) on all the bleeds except those labelled N.T., because of limited serum volume; qPCR data are reported for weekly bleeds till week 16, data about subsequent negative bleeds are not plotted.
