“…Absorption of antiMahoney serum with these inhibitor-resistant Mahoney strains yielded five antibodies with different specificities in neutralization reaction (designated as HN31, HN11, H33, HS77, and H520 antibodies) (14). A detailed experiment carried out subsequently (15), however, showed that while three (HN31, HN11, and H33 antibodies) of those five antibodies had mutually distinct specificities, the remaining two had specificities partly related to one of the three (H33 antibody). These results indicate that poliovirus-neutralizing antibody consists of several kinds of antibody having different specificities, and therefore it might be that the surface of the virus particle carries multiple distinct antigenic determinants.…”
