Improved Zika virus plaque assay using Vero/TMPRSS2 cell line by Olukunle O. Oluwasemowo, Monica E. Graham, Deepa K. Murugesh, Monica K. Borucki

“…We also observed that the ZIKV-CAM strain often did not produce plaques at all on Vero cells. This study shows that Vero cells expressing TMPRSS2 improve the morphology and visibility of plaques produced by ZIKV-PRV and ZIKV-CAM compared to regular Vero cells and may, therefore, be a better alternative to use for performing plaque assays for these strains and perhaps for other strains of ZIKV that are difficult to titer. …”
