Antigenic relationships between attenuated and pathogenic strains of Junin virus ( J V ) were investigated. Five strains of either human or rodent origin were tested by cross-neutralization assay with hyperimmune antisera, raised in rabbits, against each strain. Polyclonal antisera could be used to
Experimental infection with the XJ-Clone 3 strain of JunΓn virus in laboratory bred Akodon molinae, a cricetid rodent inhabiting the borders of endemic Argentine hemorrhagic fever areas, was studied. Suckling animals inoculated intracerebrally proved sensitive and became chronically infected. Sixty
