Research Abstract |
Japanese investigator, Dr. Sugiyama carried out a epizootiologicstudy of wild rodents at Beijing and Xian city. A total of 100 rodents were captured from the two regions and were examined for their antibody and antigen distribution. Chinese investigator, Dr. Li, stayed at Japanese research institution for examining genetic comparison among Chinese hantaviruses obtained from above materials. He examined partial nucleotide sequence of two Chinese isolates and showed the higher relationship to Korean isolates than to Japanese one. Finish investigator, Dr. Vaheri, visited at Japanese investigator's institutions for information exchange regarding the epidemiologicand epizootiologicsituations of hantavirus infection in northern part of Europe. Head investigator (Dr. Arikawa) and Japanese investigator (Dr. Morimatsu) visited at Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for information exchange regarding the prevalence of hantavirus infection over the world with American investigator Dr. Peters.
