  • Title: [Further comment on the role of sugars for the successful infection of blood-sucking Diptera by protozoa that are the causative agents of human diseases].
    Author: Alekseev AN.
    Journal: Parazitologiia; 1990; 24(5):396-9. PubMed ID: 2259528.
    Abstract:
    Possible reasons of a successful development of Plasmodium gallinaceum in Aedes aegypti, which were not given sugar feeding, are analysed. Such reasons are assumed to be high contents of sugars (up to 200 mg/% in the blood of chickens-donors) and retention of sugar in the crop of mosquitoes, which were fed from a tampon, in control.
