Infecting 24 Well Plates of Dv-1 and Myd88 Cells with DiNV to See if Myd88 Cells Grow Virus

Cells were already plated the day before and have settled to the plates.

There is a plate for day 0 just after inoculation and a plate for day 5 after inoculation.

Plate layout:

  1 2 3 4 5 6
A Dv-1 CC Myd88 CC X Dv-1 DiNV Myd88 DiNV X
B Dv-1 CC Myd88 CC X Dv-1 DiNV Myd88 DiNV X
C Dv-1 CC Myd88 CC X Dv-1 DiNV Myd88 DiNV X
D Dv-1 CC Myd88 CC X Dv-1 DiNV Myd88 DiNV X
  • I wanted to add 10ul of passage 4 virus to each well that gets infected, but I wanted the volume added to be larger to mix more
  • So I diluted 250ul of P4 DiNV with 375ul of medium
  • Then added 25ul of that solution to each virus well
  • And 25ul of straight medium to the control wells
  • Rocked the plates back and forth a bit
  • Day 0 plate was placed in the -80 immediately
  • The day 5 plate was placed in the 23C incubator for 5 days, when it was also placed in the -80
