Generation of Loa loa infective larvae by experimental infection of the vector, Chrysops silacea.
Basic and translational research on loiasis, a filarial nematode infection of medical importance, is impeded by a lack of suitable Loa loa infection models and techniques of obtaining and culturing life cycle stages. We describe the development of a new method for routine production of infective thi...
