Abstract

A 2-yr study of Japanese encephalitis (JE) virus in Sepang District, Selangor, Malaysia, was carried out to identify the mosquito vectors and to determine their seasonal abundance, parity, and infection rates. In total, 81,889 mosquitoes belonging to 9 genera and > 50 species were identified from CDC trap collections augmented with dry ice during 1992 and 1993. Culex tritaeniorhynchus Giles and Culex gelidus Giles were the most abundant species, and both increased in numbers with increases in rainfall. Overall, 45 JE virus isolations were made from 7 species-Cx. tritaeniorhynchus (24), Cx. gelidus (12), Culex fuscocephala Theobald (2), Aedes butleri Theobald (4), Culex quinquefasciatus Say (1), Aedes lineatopennis Ludlow (1), and Aedes (Cancraedes) sp. (1). Based on elevated abundance and JE infection rates, Cx. tritaeniorhynchus appears to be the most important vector of JE virus in Sepang.

Abstract

Serum specimens were collected from 6 species of animals living in 9 states of Malaysia including Sabah, North Borneo in 1993. Antibodies against Japanese encephalitis (JE) virus in these sera were detected by means of hemagglutination-inhibition (HI) and neutralization (NT) tests. By HI test, 702 of 2,152 (32.6%) sera showed positive results. Higher positive rates were obtained by the NT test, in which 1,787 of 1,927 (92.7%) sera had antibodies against JE virus. All serum specimens with positive HI were confirmed as positive by the NT. Swine sera showed especially higher rates of antibody positive and higher antibody titers compared with other animals. These results suggest that JE infections are widely distributed among many animals of Malaysia, and pig is the most susceptible amplifier host for JE virus.
