Copies of avian influenza virus RNA (A) and infectious viral loads (B) detected from chicken carcasses sold at live poultry markets or supplied through slaughtering industries Guangzhou, Guangdong, China, June–December 2016. The median value with interquartile range is shown for each dataset. Dotted lines represent the limit of linear range of quantification for viral RNA (2.903 log10 matrix gene copies/mL) (A) or the detection limit by TCID50 assay (1.789 log10 TCID50/mL) in MDCK cells (B). p v
