| pacui virus, phlebotomine flies, and small mammals in brazil: an epidemiological study. | pacui virus, originally obtained from forest rodents, was isolated 100 times from 61,437 specimens (658 pools) of the phlebotomine fly lutzomyia flaviscutellata, collected from rodent-baited traps in the forests of belem, para, brazil in the period october 1968 through september 1970. isolations were made from engorged and unengorged females and from males (3 strains), and occurred in all 24 months. pacui virus also was isolated from the blood of two wild rodents (oryzomys), but not from 424 l. ... | 1975 | 235226 |
| antigenic relationships among phlebotomus fever group arboviruses and their implication for the epidemiology of sandfly fever. | the antigenic relationships of 21 known or presumed phlebotomus fever group serotypes and of 2 ungrouped, solvent sensitive, sandfly-associated arboviruses (pacui and charleville) were studied by complement fixation, plaque neutralization, and hemagglutination-inhibition methods. results of complement fixation and neutralization tests were specific, allowing clear separation of the various serotypes, while those of the hemagglutination-inhibition test showed broader crossing and lack of specific ... | 1975 | 803351 |
| laboratory infection of the sandfly phlebotomus papatasi scopoli (diptera, psychodidae) with three phleboviruses. | membrane feeding and intrathoracic inoculation techniques were used to infect phlebotomus papatasi sandflies with phlebotomus fever group viruses. sandflies were orally infected with pacui virus, and were inoculated with pacui, sicilian sandfly fever and naples sandfly fever viruses. pacui virus did not multiply in these insects after oral infection, but an 8 x 10(4)-fold increase in virus concentration occurred within four days of intrathoracic inoculation of this virus. the infection rate was ... | 1983 | 6304951 |
| pacui virus, rio preto da eva virus, and tapirape virus, three distinct viruses within the family bunyaviridae. | nearly complete genome sequences for three ungrouped viruses, pacui virus (bean27326), rio preto da eva virus (bear540870), and tapirape virus (bean767592) isolated in the amazon region are reported here. all three genomic segments (small, medium and large rna) were recovered and were similar to members of the genus orthobunyavirus. | 2014 | 25395627 |
