The IgG-subclass specific antibody response was investigated in primary RS-virus infections in infants and small children by using an ELISA with monoclonal antibodies against the four human IgG subclasses. When 78 serum samples obtained from 21 patients during the first 3-4 mo following the onset of
## Abstract Children undergoing therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) are at increased risk of severe viral respiratory infection, and some find it difficult to terminate virus secretion. This increased severity may result from a defect in the mucosal immune response. To test this hypothe
