“…Most control larvae were reared through until death or pupation to monitor for ambient levels of NeabNPV infection, whereas others were prepared for cytological examination at 48 and 96 h after feeding. Larvae fed on NeabNPV OBs were harvested at 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 8,12,18,24,36,48,60,72,96, and 120 h after inoculation (hpi). The methods for the preparation, sectioning, and viewing of Paraplast Plus (Sherwood Medical, St. Louis, Mo, USA) and epoxy (EponAraldite, Electron Microscope Sciences, Hatfield, PA, USA) embedded larval tissues have been detailed elsewhere [26].…”
