  • Title: [Experimental study of the role of male ixodid ticks in the circulation of the tick-borne encephalitis virus].
    Author: Chunikhin SP, Alekseev AN, Reshetnikov IA.
    Journal: Med Parazitol (Mosk); 1989; (3):86-7. PubMed ID: 2779496.
    Abstract:
    Regular transmission of the tick-borne encephalitis virus by Ixodidae males feeding on laboratory animals is demonstrated. The virus titres in the male saliva were 0.1-1.5 lgLD50/0.03 ml. It was established that such doses didn't produce tense viremia in white mice or clinical tick-borne encephalitis.
