Section V - Antigenic Relationship and Lack of Relationship to Other Viruses
Results of CF tests performed at YARU showed that Seletar (SM-214) is very closely related to Wad Medani strains AR-492 and IG-673 (YARU Annual Report, 1965. p. 24).
Cross-neutralization tests in sucling mice and employing mouse hyperimmune sera prepared with five inoculations gave the following results:

These viruses lose titer during performance of NT tests resulting in low LNI's. These results, however, are reproducible. The differences in the LNI's above are significant based on standard error of the LD50 calculated at 0.2 dex.
