Section V - Antigenic Relationship and Lack of Relationship to Other Viruses
 
 


HI: Hyperimmune mouse serum versus Bushbush does not inhibit hemagglutination of: EEE, WEE, VEE, Mayaro, SLE, Ilheus, yellow fever, dengue, Catu, Guama, Moju. (The test with Catu, Guama and Moju was done by the Belem Virus Laboratory.)
CF: Crude saline antigen of mouse brain did not fix complement in the presence of mouse hyperimmune sera prepared with the following agents: Kairi, Ieri, Tacaiuma, Murutucu, SLE, Aruac, Anopheles A, Itaqui, Cache Valley, Nepuyo, Turlock, Caraparu, Bimiti, Tacaribe, Bwamba, Simbu, Wyeomyia, EEE, Rift Valley fever, Catu, Melao, WEE, Bunyamwera, Sindbis, Oropouche, VEE, Oriboca, Guama, Lukuni, Manzanilla, Marituba, EMC, Triniti, Guaroa, Apeu, GD VII.
Bushbush mouse hyperimmune serum did not fix complement with the following sucrose-acetone antigens: Guama, Catu, Moju, Capim, An 20525, but reacted to 1/4 of homologous titer with Guajara. (This test was done at the Belem Virus Laboratory.)
Strain BeAn 20076 from Belem is closely related to TRVL 26668 by CF, but cannot be assumed identical until further testing is done [7] .
 


NT: Bushbush in baby mice ic test was neutralized slightly by Bimiti and Catu hyperimmune mouse sera (about 1/3 of homologous neutralization).
SIRACA has antigenically classified Bushbush virus as the prototype virus of the Bushbush complex, one of five complexes comprising the Capim serogroup. The registered Benfica virus and an unregistered virus were judged to be subtypes of Bushbush virus [8] .
