Archiv für die gesamte Virusforschung Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Hemagglutination inhibition activity of anti-host serum was enhanced by antiglobulin in an indirect HI test. The resulting influenza virus-anti-host-antiglobulin complexes were irreversible, whereas the virus-anti-host complexes were reversible. The dissociability of the virus antibody complexes was examined with antibody redistribution method.
