Abstract excerpt
In this study, the genetic variation of eight dengue-1 strains isolated in Taiwan from 1987 to 1992 (including two imported strains) were studied. A fragment of 490 nucleotides from the E/NS1 junction was amplified and studied by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and vector cloning. By comparing the nucleotide sequences of these strains, it was found that local strains in Taiwan shared...
