  • Title: [Serotyping of patients with epidemic hemorrhagic fever (EHF) and serotyping and antigen typing of main hosts of EHF in Shandong province].
    Author: Yang Z.
    Journal: Zhonghua Liu Xing Bing Xue Za Zhi; 1993 Feb; 14(1):41-4. PubMed ID: 8099309.
    Abstract:
    Serotyping with hemagglutination-inhibition test (HI) on 458 patients with EHF showed that 419 (91.48%) of them belonged to the house-rat type, 33 (7.21%) belonged to the wild-rat type, and 6 (1.31%) were undetermined. The majority (80-100%) of the patients in various regions belonged to the house-rat type. The type of the virus antigen and the type of the antibody of rats were in conformity with the species of rats. These indicate that the epidemic areas of EHF in Shandong Province are mixed-type epidemic areas, predominantly the house-rat type.
