Figure 2. Validation of test aliquots of infected mode used for development of tissue-based universal virus detection for viral metagenomics protocol. Every ninth aliquot was extracted, and viral copy numbers were determined by using a quantitative PCR. Standard deviations (error bars), medians (solid horizontal lines), and residual plots indicate homogeneity and mixture of test specimens. Ct, cycle threshold.
