Accelerated thermostability assay was performed with A/SLOV15 V1 (blue), A/SLOV15 S13 (purple), A/New Caledonia/20/1999 (A/NC99, black) and A/California/07/2009 (A/CA09, red) LAIV viruses. A/SLOV15 V1, A/SLOV15 S13, A/NC99 and A/CA09 viruses were held at temperatures ranging from 47.5°C—65°C for 20 minutes. After incubation, all samples underwent haemagglutination assays using 0.5% chicken red blood cells and log2 titres were recorded.
