Experiments reported here were performed on the sera of thirty-three volunteers who were infected or inoculated intranasally or intramuscularly in groups of five to nine with one of two enteroviruses, namely, echovirus 11 and coxsackievirus A21 or with one of three rhinoviruses, namely, M viruses P.K. and ECHO 28, and H virus D.C. Antibody responses occurred against the virus administered, and rarely against the other viruses used. It was concluded that although these viruses are related biologically the antibody responses in the volunteers were largely specific.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
