Title: Serological reactions in Rhesus monkeys inoculated with the 17D strain of yellow fever virus. Author: GROOT H. Journal: Bull World Health Organ; 1962; 27(6):709-15. PubMed ID: 13950709. Abstract: Haemagglutination-inhibition tests, which depend on the appearance of haemagglutination-inhibiting antibodies in the serum in virus infections, are in common use in the study of arthropod-borne diseases. This paper contains the results of an investigation into the appearance and pattern of haemagglutination-inhibiting antibodies in the serum of rhesus monkeys inoculated intracerebrally with the 17D strain of yellow fever virus during the testing of seed lots of yellow fever vaccine. These antibodies appeared on the tenth day after inoculation, and were still demonstrable four years later. In all of the eight monkeys tested complement-fixing and neutralizing antibodies against yellow fever antigens also developed, and in six out of the eight heterologous antigens developed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
