Isolated mouse platelets were activated for 20 minutes at 37°C then centrifuged for 5 minutes at 13,000 xg. The resultant supernatant was then centrifuged at 10,000xg, 20,000xg, 50,000xg, or 100,000xg for 2 hours at 4°C. Then PDMV pellet (PDMV) and PDMV-poor supernatant (PDMV-poor Sup) were injected iv into CD154 knock out mice 24 hours after immunization with Ad-OVA. Serum was collected on day 7 for quantification of Adenovirus-specific antibody production. Results are shown as optical absorbance at 490nm.
