Convergence of row sequences of simultaneous Pad\'{e}-Faber approximants

We consider row sequences of vector valued Pad\'{e}-Faber approximants (simultaneous Pad\'{e}-Faber approximants) and prove a Montessus de Ballore type theorem.Comment: This paper is accepted and will be published in Journal "Mathematical Notes" V. 103, 201

Transmission rate and mean titer of infectious viral particles present in saliva of <i>Culex pipiens</i> at different days after ingestion of an infectious blood-meal containing WNV (A) and RVFV (B).

<p>We exposed a <i>Culex pipiens</i> colony, Tabarka (Tunisia) to an infectious blood-meal containing 10^7.8 PFU/mL of WNV or 10^8.5 PFU/mL of RVFV. At day 3, 6, 9, 14 and 21 post-infection, 20 females were analyzed. Saliva were collected using the forced salivation technique. After removing wings and legs, the proboscis of mosquitoes was inserted into 20 µL tip filled with 5 µL of Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS). After 45 min, medium containing the saliva was collected into 45 µL of L15 medium. The number of infectious particles per saliva was estimated by titration on Vero cells and expressed as log₁₀PFU/saliva. Lines refer to TR and bars to Log10 pfu/saliva.</p

Disseminated infection rate, Transmission rate and mean titer of infectious viral particles present in saliva of <i>Culex pipiens</i> at day 14 (A,B and C) and 21 (D,E and F) post-infection with RVFV.

<p>F1 mosquitoes (autogenous AU and anautogenous AN) were orally challenged with RVFV at a titer of 10^8.5 PFU/mL using an artificial feeding system. After completion of the blood-meal, mosquitoes were maintained in BSL-3 insectaries at 28°C. At day 14 pi and day 21 pi, saliva was collected from surviving females using the forced salivation technique. The number of infectious viral particles present in saliva was estimated by plaque assay on Vero cells. After salivation, females were tested for the presence of RVFV on head squashes by IFA. In brackets, the number of mosquitoes tested. Error bars show the confidence interval (95%) for DIR and TR, and the standard deviation for Log10 pfu/saliva.</p
