[Technical note on the isolation of arboviruses by inoculation in young mice: preparation of the mosquito brei].
Studying the effects of centrifugation and deep freezing on the quantity of yellow fever virus in a grinded pool of mosquitoes, the authors followed the mortality rate of inoculated baby mice with twenty five artificially infected mosquitoes treated in four different ways. The statistical analysis of the results show that centrifugation and deep freezing have both an effect on the titer of virus and that the addition of the two treatments have an effect superior to the addition of the separate effects of each of them. The authors propose a new technic for the preparation of pools of mosquitoes, without centrifugation or deep freezing.
