Serologic Evidence of West Nile Virus Infection in Horses, Coahuila State, Mexico
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003 Serum samples were obtained from 24 horses in the State of Coahuila, Mexico, in December 2002. Antibodies to West Nile virus were detected by epitope-blocking enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and confirmed by plaque reduction neutralization test in 15 ...

Strain-Dependent Activity of Zika Virus and Exposure History in Serological Diagnostics
Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2020 Zika virus (ZIKV) circulates as two separate lineages, with significant genetic variability between strains. Strain-dependent activity has been reported for dengue virus, herpes simplex virus and influenza.

Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test for the Serodiagnosis of Infectious Bursal Disease
The Japanese Journal of Veterinary Science, 1977 A simplified plaque reduction neutralization test was performed to detectinfectious bursal disease antibody in chickens twice infected. Since 18 days after initialinfection, some correlation was observed between antibodies detected by the agar getprecipitin test, which is the conventional serodiagnosLic method, and the plaque reductionneutralization ...

Selection of neutralizing antibody escape mutants with type A influenza virus HA-specific polyclonal antisera: possible significance for antigenic drift [PDF]
, 1997 Ten antisera were produced in rabbits by two or three intravenous injections of inactivated whole influenza type A virions. All contained haemagglutination-inhibition (HI) antibody directed predominantly to an epitope in antigenic site B and, in addition,

Orthobunyavirus Antibodies in Humans, Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012 We performed a serologic investigation to determine whether orthobunyaviruses commonly infect humans in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. Orthobunyavirus-specific antibodies were detected by plaque reduction neutralization test in 146 (18%) of 823 persons

Late phase inhibition of murine cytomegalovirus replication by synergistic action of interferon-gamma and tumour necrosis factor [PDF]
, 1994 We have shown previously that the antiviral function of CD4+ T lymphocytes against murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) is associated with the release of interferon- (IFN-).

Kinetics of the neutralizing antibody response to respiratory syncytial virus infections in a birth cohort [PDF]
, 2013 The kinetics of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) neutralizing antibodies following birth, primary and secondary infections are poorly defined. The aims of the study were to measure and compare neutralizing antibody responses at different time points in ...
