Additional Details
Retro-orbital and tail vein inject to target sensory neurons, ideally those in the olfactory epithelium; In the olfactory epithelium, I observed very sparse expression in the sensory neurons and stronger expression in sustentacular cells

Assay & Results
In the olfactory epithelium, I observed very sparse expression in the sensory neurons and stronger expression in sustentacular cells
Other Information
No toxicity or inflammation. The number of cells infected in the 1e11 VG and 1e12 injections did not seem that different. In both cases the number of sensory neurons that were infected were quite low.
Tips & Comments
In our experience, it seems that the AAV PHP. S variants do not offer much of an advantage over other more reliable methods of transducing olfactory sensory neurons, such as with Adenoviruses
