Lokern Antigen
CF 1HI 1NT 2 Lokern antiserum
Type of Immune Fluid Immune Fluid or Antigen Ht/Ho Ht/Ho Ht/Ho CF 1HI 1NT 2


1 CF and HI titers are expressed as the reciprocal of the serum or ascitic fluid dilution.
2 NT titers are expressed as dex LNI. Tests with hyperimmune sera or ascitic fluids were performed in SM inoculated ic, whereas tests with immune hamster serum were done by plaque reduction in Vero cell cultures.
3 Reagents and facilities of the Yale Arbovirus Research Unit, New Haven, Connecticut, were made available through the courtesy of Dr. W.G. Downs and Dr. R.E. Shope for conducting HI tests. CF tests were done by Dr. R.E. Shope.
