Aedes aegypti became infected when inoculated with a mixture of dengue-2 virus and anti-dengue-2 antibodies, but not when they were exposed to the same mixture per os. This phenomenon merits more detailed investigation. Understanding why this difference in mosquito infection rate occurs may lead to improved dengue virus assays or provide insights into the nature of dengue virus-antibody interactions.
埃及伊蚊在接种登革热2型病毒和抗登革热2型抗体的混合物时会被感染,但经口接触相同混合物时则不会。这一现象值得更详细的研究。了解蚊子感染率出现这种差异的原因可能会改进登革热病毒检测方法,或者为登革热病毒与抗体相互作用的本质提供见解。
