  |  |        Lassa virus multiplied to high titer (5.0-6.0 dex PFU/ml) in Vero, mouse L (CL), swine kidney (CL), human embryo kidney (CL), and diploid human embryo lung (CL) cell cultures. The virus multiplied to lower titers (4.0-5.0 dex PFU/ml) in BHK-21 (CL), CV-1 (CL), FL (CL), HEp-2 (CL) and MDCK (CL) cell cultures. No virus multiplication or plaque formation in chick embryo (PC) cell cultures. Virus plaques only in  CV-1 and Vero cell cultures (21).                  |  |               |  |       Vero (CL)       |   |   |       CPE       |   |   |       Plaques (1)       |  |  |  |  |  |       Aedes aegypti (CL)       |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |       - (1)       |  |  |  |       Ae albopictus (CL)       |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |       - (1)       |  |  |
