  1. Bodyweight decrease (+/- SD), relative lung weight, lung damage and viral titers (log TCID50 +/- SD) for lung, turbinates and trachea over time in H3N2, pH1N1 and H5N1 infected ferrets and the control (mock infection). Weight in grams, Lung damage in relative percentage of total lung tissue. Relative lung weight was calculated by lung weight divided by bodyweight times 100%. Infectious virus titers in log10 TCID50/g threshold were based on Mock control and <1.8 for turbinates, <1.9 for trachea, <1.4 log10 TCID50 for lung.
