Optimal storage conditions for the detection of enolase derived from the midguts of field collected Aedes albopictus / Nurul Izni Rosman

Dengue virus (DENV), is an arbovirus vectored by Aedes albopictus, has high tolerance in adapting to new environment including in vector and human cells. The ability of the virus to interact successfully with the protein receptor on the mosquito midgut epithelial cells contributes to the transmissio...

Laboratory technique Infectious and parasitic diseases Dengue virus (DENV), is an arbovirus vectored by Aedes albopictus, has high tolerance in adapting to new environment including in vector and human cells. The ability of the virus to interact successfully with the protein receptor on the mosquito midgut epithelial cells contributes to the transmission of this virus to human.
