Top panels: immunofluorescence staining of mock- (a) and RRV- (b) infected H69 cells (MOI of 5, 24 h p.i.) using anti-RV VP6 antibody; red cytoplasm fluorescence indicates RRV-infected cells (magnification 40x). Bottom panels: double immunofluorescence staining with anti-RV VP6 (red, c) and CK-7 (green, d) antibodies of RRV-infected H69 cells; (e) is a merged image of (c) and (d). Blue counterstaining of nuclei by DAPI.
