Exposure of Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) virus (at -70 C) to 6 x 106 r y-radiation (6WCo) resulted in loss of lethality for young adult mice and guinea pigs, and loss of capacity to produce plaques or cyLopathic effects in tissue culture. The suckling mouse was more sensitive for detecting live virus in radiated suspensions than was the adult mouse or guinea pig. Live virus was dem...

Current systems and architectures in the domains of distributed and embedded computing are complex, respond badly to many application needs, and are not easily specialisable to better support a given application or host platform. This leads to a proliferation of non-reusable ad-hoc solutions. Our goal is to develop a exible, object-oriented virtual execution environment (VEE), dynamically speci...

Mesenteronal infection and transmission thresholds for several Middle American epizootic and enzootic Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) viruses were evaluated in field-collected (Guatemala) and colonized individuals of the enzootic vector mosquito Culex (Melanoconion) taeniopus. Approximate thresholds for 3 epizootic, hemagglutination-inhibition (HI) subtype I-AB strains were 10 chick e...

For a connected reductive group $G$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$ and equipped with the induced Frobenius endomorphism $F$, we study relation among following three $\mathbb{Z}$-algebras: (i) $\mathbb{Z}$-model $\mathsf{E}_G$ of algebras Gelfand-Graev representations $G^F$; (ii) Grothendieck $\mathsf{K}_{G^\ast}$ category $G^{\ast F^\ast}$ $\overline{\mathbb{F}_q}$ (Deligne-Lusztig dual side); (ii...

Exposure of Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) virus (at -70 C) to 6 x 10 r gamma-radiation (Co) resulted in loss of lethality for young adult mice and guinea pigs, and loss of capacity to produce plaques or cytopathic effects in tissue culture. The suckling mouse was more sensitive for detecting live virus in radiated suspensions than was the adult mouse or guinea pig. Live virus was de...

Let $$G = (V,E)$$ be a connected simple graph of order p and size q. A G is called local antimagic if admits labeling. bijection $$f \colon E \to \{1,2,\ldots,q\}$$ labeling for any two adjacent vertices $$u$$ $$v$$ , we have $$f^+(u) \ne f^+(v)$$ where \sum_{e\in E(u)} f(e)$$ $$E(u)$$ the set edges incident to . Thus, induces proper vertex coloring assigned color $$f^+(v)$$ The chromatic numbe...

Using Galois theory, we explicitly construct (in all complex dimensions $$g\ge 2$$ ) an infinite family of simple $$g$$ -dimensional tori $$T$$ that enjoy the following properties: $$\bullet$$ Picard number is $$0;$$ in particular, algebraic dimension $$0$$ ; if $$T^\vee$$ dual , then $$\mathrm{Hom}(T,T^\vee)=\{0\}$$ automorphism group $$\mathrm{Aut}(T)$$ isomorphic to $$\{\pm 1\} \times \mathb...

The isolation of arboviruses from patient's low titer sera can be difficult. Here we compared the detection efficiency of Dengue (DEN), Yellow Fever (YF), Saint Louis Encephalitis (SLE), West Nile (WN), Ilheus (ILH), Group C (GC), Oropouche (ORO), Mayaro (MAY) and Venezuela Encephalitis Equine (VEE) viruses using a Modified Shell Vial Culture (MSVC) protocol to a Standard Cell Culture (SCC) pro...
