Isolation of a bunyamwera group arbovirus from a naturally infected caribou

Abstract

A Bunyamwera group arbovirus was isolated from the blood and from the brain of a female caribou parasitized with meningeal worms. The virus passed through a 0.45 micron filter; was ether sensitive; possessed no hemagglutination properties; could be propagated in suckling mice, 6-day old chick embryos, and BHK-21 tissue culture; and produced plaques in chick embryo fibroblast tissue culture. Neither complement-fixation or neutralization tests were sensitive enough to determine the serotype of the virus.

Anthelmintics (ASM)

Anthelmintics or antihelminthics are a group of antiparasitic drugs that expel parasitic worms (helminths) and other internal parasites from the body by either stunning or killing them and without causing significant damage to the host. Discover the latest research on anthelmintics here.
