    Dengue is one of the most important mosquito-borne viral infectionsin Sri Lanka.The causative agent is Dengue Viruses (DENV) and the primary vector of the virus is Aedesaegypti(Linnaeus) while Ae. albopictus (Skuse) is the ...
  • Detection of dengue virus in Aedes albopictus mosquitoes by Reverse Transcription Polymerase-Chain Reaction-Liquid Hybridization (RT-PCR-LH) based assay. 
    Hapugoda, M.D.; Gunasekera, M.B.; de Silva, N.R.; Gunasena, S.; Prithimala, L.D.; Dayanath, M.Y.D.; Abeyewickreme, W. (Sri Lanka College of Microbiologists, 2003)
    Dengue is an important public health problem. In this study an RT-PCR-LH assay was developed for the detection of dengue virus in Ae.albopictus, a vector of dengue. Laboratory bred Ae.albopictus (adults inoculated with ...
