## Abstract Tickโborne encephalitis (TBE) virus is one of the most important flaviviruses associated with neurological disease in Europe. Crossโreactive antibodies elicited by different flaviviruses can make difficult the interpretation of ELISA and hemagglutinationโinhibition (HI) tests for the di

## Abstract The relationship between serum immunoglobulins and the severity and risk of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) infection in the institutionalized elderly was prospectively assessed during the winter of 1989โ1990 at a 591 bed nursing home. Forty RSV infections were identified out of 149 r
## Abstract Natural humoral cytotoxic antibodies from 13โ and 18โmonthโold BALB/c mice showed a virusโspecific complementโdependent activity against target cells productively infected with xenotropic, amphotropic or ecotropic typeโC viruses. The cytotoxic activity was lowest against ecotropic virus
The humoral immune response to Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) was investigated in old and young adults. RSV was identified by culture and/ or reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in 52 elderly (mean age 74 years) and 15 young adults (mean age 33 years) with respiratory illness
Little information about immunity to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and disease pathogenesis in elderly persons exists. Humoral immunity to RSV was assessed in 41 young, 56 healthy elderly, and 49 frail elderly adults by measuring baseline RSV specific IgG by enzyme immunoassay (EIA) and microneu
## Abstract Antibodies to murine mammary tumor virus (MuMTV) were found in sera from male and female mice by means of a radiolabelled intact MuMTV precipitation assay. These antibodies were demonstrated both in strains of mice that have a high incidence of mammary tumors and transmit the highly onc
