Antiviral the crude extracts were examined by cell culture method using Huh7it-1 cells HCV genotype 2a strain JFH1. The mode action for anti-HCV was determined time-of-addition experiments. effect on RNA replication accumulation in analyzed quantitative reverse transcription-PCR western blotting, respectively. dichloromethane (DCM) extract A....
Group A rotavirus (RVA) is the most important cause of severe gastroenteritis among children worldwide, and effective RVA vaccines have been introduced in many countries. Here we performed a molecular epidemiological analysis infection pediatric patients East Java, Indonesia, during 2015-2018. total 432 stool samples were collected from hospitalized with acute gastroenteritis. None this cohort had immunized an vaccine. The overall prevalence was 31.7% (137/432), significantly more prevalent...
Abstract Four subtypes ( adw, adr, ayw , and ayr ) eight genotypes (A to H) of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) have been identified. They appear be associated with particular geographic distribution, ethnicity, possibly clinical outcomes. In this study, surface antigen (HBsAg) subtyping HBV genotyping were carried out on sera obtained from HBsAg‐positive carriers, including healthy blood donors; patients acute hepatitis, chronic liver cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma; hemodialysis all located...
Each hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotype and subgenotype is associated with a particular geographic distribution, ethnicity, anthropological history. Our previous study showed the novel HBV subgenotypes C6 (HBV/C6) D6 (HBV/D6), based on S gene sequences of isolates in Papua, Indonesia. The present investigated complete genome sequence 22 strains from Papua subjected them to molecular evolutionary analysis. A phylogenetic analysis revealed that 9 out were classified as HBV/C6, 3 HBV/D6, HBV/B3....
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is a fatal disease in Asia. Pigs are considered to be the effective amplifying host for JEV peridomestic environment. Bali Island and Java Indonesia provide model assess effect of pigs on transmission, since pig density nearly 100-fold higher than Java, while geographic climatologic environments equivalent these areas.
