PRRSV strain HN07-1 (GenBank accession no. KX766378.1) and NADC30-like strain HNhx (GenBank KX766379) were previously isolated by our laboratory (69 (link), 70 (link)). PRRSV strain BJ-4 (GenBank AF331831) was kindly provided by Hanchun Yang from China Agricultural University. The infectious clone of HN07-1 (HN07-GFP) was constructed by inserting EGFP between PRRSV open reading frame 1b (ORF1b) and ORF2a through the reverse-genetics technique. The PRRSV strain used in the experiments was HN07-1 unless otherwise stated.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
