Section V - Antigenic Relationship and Lack of Relationship to Other Viruses
 
In CF testing, a SM liver antigen did not react with the following ascitic fluids: EEE, WEE, VEE, Mayaro, Una, Pixuna, Ilheus, SLE, yellow fever, dengue 2, Murray Valley encephalitis, Cache Valley, Tensaw, Silverwater, Turlock, California (La Crosse and trivittatus), Oropouche, Sathuperi, Aruac, Ieri, Sororoca, Anopheles A, Anopheles B, VS-Indiana, CTF, Buttonwillow, Flanders, Herpes simplex, Broad Group A, Broad Group B, Broad California, Broad Guama, Broad Capim, Broad Bunyamwera and Broad Simbu. A hyperimmune ascitic fluid of the prototype failed to inhibit hemagglutinins of EEE, WEE, SLE, MVE, LAC, Tensaw and Buttonwillow.
