Figure 5

MARV loads (Q-RT–PCR-derived log10TCID50eq ml−1) in oral swabs, rectal swabs and blood obtained during the early and late study phases (that is, 7 MPI). The legend indicates the housing unit (1–6) and group (naive contact-NC) of each bat during the early study phase. The lower limit of detection was 0.4, 0.7 and −0.3 log10TCID50eq ml−1 for blood, oral swabs and rectal swabs, respectively.
