Both throat swabs (3A) and nasal swabs (3B) were analysed for viral loads by cell culture (log10TCID50/mL) and plotted daily after challenge. Plots contain mean daily mean titres with ± SD for each treatment. The following treatment groups were challenged with HPAI virus by the intratracheal route: red circle = placebo group challenged, green squares = unadjuvanted/antigen alone vaccine group, blue triangles = CSN adjuvanted vaccine, orange diamonds = TM-CSN adjuvanted vaccine. The following groups were challenge by the intranasal route: black diamonds = placebo, and blue circles = CSN adjuvanted vaccine.
