  1. A monolayer of host cells are seeded into a 6-, 12-, or 24-well plate
  2. Mixtures of the virus and various dilutions of the antibodies are produced and allowed to incubate for 2 hours
  3. After incubation, the different mixtures are then added to the host cells and incubated for another 2 hours
  4. The results showed a dose dependent decrease in the formation of cytolytic plaques as the antibody concentration increased
  5. In addition, plaque number and size information can be directly exported into Microsoft Excel for additional plotting and analysis
