Study of hantavirus infection in captive breed colonies of wild rodents
Wild sigmondontine rodents are known to be the reservoir of several serotypes of New World hantaviruses. The mechanism of viral transmission is by aerosol inhalation of the excreta from infected rodents.

Confined Random Walkers in Dimensions Higher Than One and Analysis of Transmission of Infection in Epidemics [PDF]
A pair of random walkers, the motion of each of which in two dimensions is confined spatially by the action of a quadratic potential centered at different locations for the two walks, are analyzed in the context of reaction-diffusion. The application sought is to the process of transmission of infection in epidemics.

Who is killing whom? Hantaviruses vs programmed cell death [PDF]
Hantaviruses belong to the Bunyaviridae family of negative stranded RNA viruses. They carry a tri-segmented genome and consist of four structural proteins.

Gastrointestinal Tract As Entry Route for Hantavirus Infection [PDF]
Background: Hantaviruses are zoonotic agents that cause hemorrhagic fevers and are thought to be transmitted to humans by exposure to aerosolized excreta of infected rodents. Puumala virus (PUUV) is the predominant endemic hantavirus in Europe.

Diffusion and Home Range Parameters from Rodent Population Measurements in Panama [PDF]
Simple random walk considerations are used to interpret rodent population data collected in Hantavirus-related investigations in Panama regarding the short-tailed cane mouse, \emph{Zygodontomys brevicauda}. The diffusion constant of mice is evaluated to be of the order of (and larger than) 200 meters squared per day.

Hantavirus Infection in SCID Mice.
Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice were inoculated with Hantaan virus strain 76-118 (HTN) or Seoul virus strain SR-11 (SR) of hantaviruses. Susceptibility of SCID mice was compared with those of immunocompetent adult mice, newborn mice and nude mice. SCID mice inoculated with HTN or SR died 32 to 35 days after infection.

Experimental research of the hantavirus survival in complexes with environmental substrates
Survival of viruses in the environment is a very important problem in epidemiology, especially for infections with indirect transmission. This work describes the results of the experimental study of adsorption and survival of the hantavirus on different ...
