hemorrhagic fever, renal failure, encephalitis, meningitis, and even blindness
Just like arenaviridae this virus also has a segmented genome
Bunyaviridae
What are the classification of Bunyaviridae?
Arboviridae
Non-arboviruses
This term is m used to describe a group of viral infections transmitted to humans from a group of insects known as arthropods
Arboviruses
What does Arboviruses’ common disease?
California encephalitis and La Crosse viruses caused by mosquito bite
What causes California encephalitis and La Crosse viruses?
Mosquito bite
California encephalitis and La Crosse viruses enters the blood stream via?
Arthropod bite
Where do the blood disseminates the virus?
To great organs
What is the RT-PCR Target under Orthobunyavirus?
M-segment polyprotein genes
What is the Ag of Orthobunyavirus?
Glycoprotein-1
Grid-like surface pattern
Hataan Virus (Genus Virus)
What is the pattern of Genus Hantavirus?
Grid-like
TRUE OR FALSE
Non-arboviruses is caused by arthropods
FALSE; Not caused
This causes severe and fatal pneumonia
Sin nombre and hantaviruses (1993)
What do Sin nombre and hantaviruses causes?
severe and fatal pneumonia
What is the other name of La Crosse Virus?
Orthobunyavirus
This virus may cause hemorrhagic fever
Hantavirus
What do Hantavirus cause?
Hemorrhagic fever
This virus is extracellular and have a variety of sizes and internal cores composed of thin thread- like material
SIN NOMBRE VIRUS PARTICLES
Most sensitive test, detecting the genome for this virus
High specific and sensitive test to identify viruses
POLYMERASE CHAIN REACTION (RT-PCR)
This is the detection of Ab and the most common method to diagnose arbovirus
SEROLOGIC METHOD
The serological method under bunyaviridae, what does it detects?
IgM or IgG
More rapid but there is a question if it is as sensitive as PCR
SEROLOGIC METHOD
