| Research Abstract |
Three novel hantaviruses were detected in Mexican rodents. The antibody detection method for various hantavirus infections was developed. Five of six monoclonal antibodies to nucleocapsid protein (NP) of Mexican hantavirus were broadly reacted with NPs of rodent-borne hantaviruses. Glycosylation of West Nile virus E protein made great influence in the pathogenesis in chicks infected with West Nile virus.
