| Abstract: | Equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) was injected intrathoracically into Aedes aegypti, Stomoxys calcitrans, and Tabanus fuscicostatus, and fed to Ae. aegypti in suspensions of either artificial blood or Eagle’s Minimum Essential Medium. Insects were stored at -70 degree C for up to 9 months before testing for the presence of EIAV. The viral tissue culture titer, detected from stored insects were similar to those from insects tested at time 0. |
