Abstract in Portuguese
Esta é a versão digital do Atlas de Morfologia e Morfogênese do Vírus da Dengue, publicado pelo Instituto Oswaldo Cruz. A publicação em inglês descreve a morfologia do ciclo de vida do vírus da dengue por meio de 115 imagens acompanhadas de textos explicativos. A morfogênese da replicação do vírus é descrita e discutida pela autora e chefe do Laboratório de Morfologia e Morfogênese Viral, Monika Barth.
Abstract
The book combines skilfull technical aspects with scientific criticism and is intended to be used as a reference, to those in the field of dengue morphogenesis and replication, as well as to electron microscopists and virologists in general. Dengue virus infections became the most important arthropod borne viral disease in the world, along the last two decades and every effort to better understand its replication and morphogenesis should be encouraged. We consider this book an excellent contribution in these aspects. This publication is dedicated to the Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, in its Centenary accomplished by May 2000, pointing out its vast contribution for research in tropical diseases, including dengue and yellow fever.
