| | | No hemagglutin could be prepared but antisera to IN1074 (prepared in mice or rabbits by three or six weekly intraperitoneal inoculations) did not inhibit hemagglutination by antigens of Groups A (Sindbis, Getah, Ross River), B (Murray Valley encephalitis) or Koongol (Koongol, Wongal). | | Complement-fixation tests (homologous titres - antigen = 32-64, mouse serum after inoculations = 64) and neutralization tests (homologous neutralization indices of mouse or rabbit antisera 1.6-2.1 dex) failed to show any relation- ship between IN1074, its antisera, and antigens or antisera to arboviruses previously isolated in Australia-Murray Valley encephalitis, Kunjin, Kokobera, Edge Hill, Stratford, Ross River, Sindbis, Getah, Koongol, Wongal, Corriparta, Mapputta, Kowanyama, Trubanaman, or to the exotic viruses Japanese B encephalitis, Bebaru, and dengue types 1-4 [2] . | | Serologically related to Pata virus, DakAr 1327, isolated from a pool of 35 Aedes palpalis captured in Pata, Central African Republic in November 1968 ( [4] , [5] ). | | The Eubenangee serogroup presently consists of three registered viruses including Eubenangee, Pata and Tilligerry viruses. | | In addition, viruses of the bluetongue, Eubenangee and EHD serogroups share antigens which can be detected in complement-fixation tests and in agar-gel precipitin tests [8] - [10] . | | |
