A pool of seven monoclonal antibodies, each reactive with cytomegalovirus (CMV) early antigens, was used in an indirect immunofluorescence method for the rapid detection of CMV-infected fibroblasts following inoculation with clinical specimens. A total of 1,639 specimens were examined, and the resul
## Abstract Recently a conventional method for the laboratory diagnosis of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection was improved by using centrifugation culture to enhance viral adsorption and by detecting HCMV early antigen and DNA. Comparison of the sensitivity of three rapid methods using commerci
A commercially available monoclonal antibody against the 72000 Dalton early nuclear protein (EA) of cytomegalovirus (CMV) strain AD169 was used in an indirect immunofluorescence staining procedure (IF) for rapid detection of CMV-infected cells in tissue cultures inoculated with clinical specimens (2
