The host-range tdCE phenotype of Chandipura virus is determined by mutations in the polymerase gene [PDF]
The emerging arbovirus Chandipura virus (CV) has been implicated in epidemics of acute encephalitis in India with high mortality rates. The isolation of temperature-dependent host-range (tdCE) mutants, which are impaired in growth at 39 °C in chick ...

Late Therapy with an Interferon Stimulator in an Arbovirus Encephalitis in Mice
SummaryA number of different dose schedules of a potent interferon stimulator, polyinosinicδpolycytidylic acid, were compared in Semliki Forest virus infected mice. Daily treatment with 100 μg of InδCn intraperitoneally was more effective than any of the other dose schedules tested.

Effect of blood meals and mating on biodemographic characteristics of Aedes albopictus
Lifespan did not differ between virgin and mated males and females. The number of blood meals (one and two) significantly reduced adult lifespan compared with those with no blood meal. The effect of the second blood meal doubled females' egg production and their reproductive output.

California Arbovirus (La Crosse) Infections II. Precipitin Antibody Tests for the Diagnosis of California Encephalitis [PDF]
Precipitin antibodies to California group arboviruses were studied by double agar gel immunodiffusion (ID) and counterimmunoelectrophoresis (CEP). Forty children with California encephalitis (CE), 12 patients with other forms of meningoencephalitis, and 120 residents of endemic CE areas were tested.
