| stimulation of dengue virus replication in cultured aedes albopictus (c6/36) mosquito cells by the antifungal imidazoles ketoconazole and miconazole. | replication of dengue type 3 virus in aedes albopictus c6/36 cells was enhanced more than 50-fold by addition of the antifungal imidazole derivative ketoconazole within the first 4 h of infection. the stimulatory effect was reflected in the yield of infectious virus and in levels of viral rna and protein synthesis. enhanced yields were observed also for other flaviviruses, including dengue type 2 virus and murray valley encephalitis virus. increased yields of dengue type 3 virus were not observe ... | 2000 | 10725192 |
| sucrose density gradient centrifugation and cross-flow filtration methods for the production of arbovirus antigens inactivated by binary ethylenimine. | sucrose density gradient centrifugation and cross-flow filtration methods have been developed and standardised for the safe and reproducible production of inactivated arbovirus antigens which are appropriate for use in diagnostic serological applications. | 2004 | 14720306 |
| aedes albopictus (diptera: culicidae) as a potential vector of endemic and exotic arboviruses in australia. | in 2005, established populations of aedes albopictus (skuse) were discovered in the torres strait, the region that separates papua new guinea from northern australia. this increased the potential for this species to be introduced to mainland australia. because it is an arbovirus vector elsewhere, we undertook laboratory-based infection and transmission experiments to determine the potential for ae. albopictus from the torres strait to become infected with and transmit the four major australian e ... | 2014 | 24897860 |
