| 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) | | |
