Time course of HIV-1 penetration across CAEC. Triplicate CAEC models (prepared with CAEC in passage 6) were challenged with 1 million RNA copies of HIV-1JR-FL placed in the upper chamber. The inulin permeability coefficient baseline was determined in two replicate models as 0.000235 and 0.000256 cm/min. At indicated times, 100 µL samples were removed from the lower chamber and RNA copy number was determined by the Amplicor assay.
