Phlebotomus Fever
Section V - Antigenic Relationship and Lack of Relationship to Other Viruses
 
HI test: Results with Aguacate serum (homologous = 160) were Icoaraci, 20; Karimabad and Arumowot, 10; Sicilian, Chagres, Anhanga, Itaporanga, and Frijoles <10. Aguacate antigen was inhibited to a titer of 20 by Buenaventura and Icoarci sera; 10 by Punta Toro and not by Naples, Sicilian, Chagres, Frijoles, Candiru, Karimabad, Salehabad, Bujaru, Anhanga, Arumowot, and Gabek Forest [2] .
Aguacate CF antigen (homologous titer = >512/128) did not react with immune sera of groups A , B , C, Tacaribe , Capim, Simbu, California , Phlebotomus fever, and Bunyamwera ; or with specific immune sera for Manzanilla , Anopheles A and B, Turlock, Changuinola, Charleville , VS-Indiana , VS-New Jersey , VS-Alagoas , Piry , Chandipura , Naples, Sicilian, Punta Toro, Icoaraci, Candiru, Itaporanga, Pacui, Karimabad, Anhanga, Bujaru, Arumowot, Gabek Forest, Salehabad, Urucuri, Frijoles, Cacao, Caimito, Nique, Chilibre, and Buenaventura [2] .
Aguacate hyperimmune hamster serum did not react in CF tests with suckling hamster brain antigens for Pacui, Changuinola, Naples, Sicilian, Punta Toro, Chagres, Icoaraci, Candiru, Itaporanga, Karimabad, Anhanga, Bujaru, Arumowot, Gabek Forest, Buenaventura , Salehabad, Urucuri, Frijoles, and Caimito or with a MA-111 cell antigen of Cacao. [2]
Aguacate antigen showed a slight cross-reaction with Chagres and Nique antisera in CF test as follows:
 
Antigen
Antiserum Aguacate Chagres Nique


Aguacate > 512/128 0 0
Chagres 8/8 256/128 0
Nique 16/16 0 >2048/512
Cross-neutralization tests (plaque method) using Aguacate virus and immune serum (homologous titer = 512) were done against each of the following viruses and specific immune sera with negative results: ALE, ANH, AMT, BUE, BUJ, CAC, CAI, CDU, CHG, CHV, CHI, FRI, GF, GOR, TEH, ICO, TOS, ITA, ITP, KAR, SFN, SFS, NIQ, PAC, PT, RVF, RG, SAF, SAL, TRA, and URU [2] .
