etiological relation between korean hemorrhagic fever and epidemic hemorrhagic fever in japan.the first case of epidemic hemorrhagic fever in japan was seen in osaka in 1960. the etiologic agent of this disease has not yet been isolated, but a close etiologic relation between korean hemorrhagic fever and epidemic hemorrhagic fever in japan has been suspected because of similarities in the clinical and pathological pictures of the two diseases. this relation has now been confirmed serologically by demonstrating specific immunofluorescent antibodies to korean hemorrhagic fever virus in 19 ...197943726
korean haemorrhagic fever in staff in an animal laboratory.in march, 1975, and january, 1978, there were outbreaks of korean haemorrhagic fever (k.h.f.) among staff in the animal laboratory of the clinical research building of tohoku university hospital. 13 doctors and 1 veterinarian had k.h.f., and all except 1 had a mild but typical clinical course. k.h.f. antibody titres were significantly raised in all 14 patients. 12 other doctors working in the same room had no symptoms and no k.h.f. antibody. k.h.f. antibody was also detected in 3 animal technici ...197987777
aetiological relation between korean haemorrhagic fever and nephropathia epidemica.a close aetiological relation between korean haemorrhagic fever and nephropathia epidemica of scandinavia has often been suggested because of similarities in their clinical picture and epidemiology. this relation has now been confirmed serologically; raised titres of antibody to korean haemorrhagic fever agent and seroconversions have been found by the indirect fluorescent-antibody technique in 20 patients with nephropathia epidemica.197984207
antigenic relationship of two strains of simian hemorrhagic fever virus.serological comparison of the prototype and an epizootic (corbell) strain of simian hemorrhagic fever virus revealed that the two viruses were serologically similar. the prototype strain differs from the corbell strain in that the latter cannot be cultivated in vitro. serological comparison of the prototype virus grown in tissue culture and its homologous antibody and the prototype and corbell viruses recovered from rhesus monkey serum and their homologous antibodies showed differences and sugge ...1978100652
