This paper presents the results of haemagglutination-inhibition tests carried out on sera from 441 persons, 1,080 cattle and 335 birds in the Kimberley area. Two Alphaviruses (group A) (Ross River and Sindbis) and one Flavivirus (Murray Valley Encephalitis) were used for the preparation of haemagglutinins in the haemagglutination-inhibition tests. The tests showed a high percentage of antibody of Murray Valley Encephalitis in humans, birds and cattle, with an obvious focus of infection in the study site when cattle sera from different geographic areas were compared. These results are discussed in relation to the evolution and ecology of arboviruses in the Ord River area.
本文介绍了对金伯利地区441人、1080头牛和335只鸟的血清进行血凝抑制试验的结果。在血凝抑制试验中,使用了两种甲病毒(A组)(罗斯河病毒和辛德毕斯病毒)和一种黄病毒(墨累谷脑炎病毒)来制备血凝素。试验显示,人类、鸟类和牛体内墨累谷脑炎抗体的比例很高,当比较来自不同地理区域的牛血清时,研究地点存在明显的感染焦点。结合奥尔德河地区虫媒病毒的进化和生态对这些结果进行了讨论。
