| characterization of minaçu virus (reoviridae: orbivirus) and pathological changes in experimentally infected newborn mice. | minaçu virus was isolated from ochlerotatus scapularis (diptera: culicidae) in minaçu, goiás state, brazil, in 1996. in attempting characterization of virus serological (hemagluttination inhibition, hi; indirect immunofluorescence assay, ifa), physicochemical [test for deoxycholate acid (dca) sensitivity; polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (page)] tests and ultrastructural studies were made. virus was also assayed in suckling mice after intracerebral inoculation of 0.02 ml and in vero and c6/36 ... | 2007 | 17244340 |
| isolation and characterization of mayaro virus from a human in acre, brazil. | mayaro virus (mayv) is widely distributed throughout south america and is the etiologic agent of mayaro fever, an acute febrile illness often presenting with arthralgic manifestations. the true incidence of mayv infection is likely grossly underestimated because the symptomatic presentation is very similar to that of dengue fever and other acute febrile tropical diseases. we report the complete genome sequence of a mayv isolate detected from an acrelândia patient presenting with fever, chills, a ... | 2014 | 25510721 |
