Figure 1

Specific detection of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) in microinjected Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks by indirect fluorescence assay. A) SFTSV-injected ticks 12 days after microinjection (original magnification ×10). Red arrows indicate specific fluorescence s. B) Phosphate-buffered saline–injected ticks 12 days after microinjection (original magnification ×10). No specific fluorescene is seen.
