bloodfeeding patterns of sylvatic arbovirus vectors in southeastern senegal. | dengue (denv), yellow fever (yfv) and chikungunya (chikv) viruses circulate in sylvatic, enzootic transmission cycles in southeastern senegal, but understanding of the vector-host interactions involved is limited. | 0 | 23423342 |
zika virus emergence in mosquitoes in southeastern senegal, 2011. | zika virus (zikv; genus flavivirus, family flaviviridae) is maintained in a zoonotic cycle between arboreal aedes spp. mosquitoes and nonhuman primates in african and asian forests. spillover into humans has been documented in both regions and the virus is currently responsible for a large outbreak in french polynesia. zikv amplifications are frequent in southeastern senegal but little is known about their seasonal and spatial dynamics. the aim of this paper is to describe the spatio-temporal pa ... | 2014 | 25310102 |
potential of selected senegalese aedes spp. mosquitoes (diptera: culicidae) to transmit zika virus. | zika virus (zikv; genus flavivirus, family flaviviridae) is an emerging virus of medical importance maintained in a zoonotic cycle between arboreal aedes spp. mosquitoes and nonhuman primates in african and asian forests. serological evidence and virus isolations have demonstrated widespread distribution of the virus in senegal. several mosquito species have been found naturally infected by zikv but little is known about their vector competence. | 2015 | 26527535 |
recombinase polymerase amplification assay for rapid diagnostics of dengue infection. | over 2.5 billion people are exposed to the risk of contracting dengue fever (df). early diagnosis of df helps to diminish its burden on public health. real-time reverse transcription polymerase amplification assays (rt-pcr) are the standard method for molecular detection of the dengue virus (denv). real-time rt-pcr analysis is not suitable for on-site screening since mobile devices are large, expensive, and complex. in this study, two rt-recombinase polymerase amplification (rt-rpa) assays were ... | 2015 | 26075598 |
