STUDIES ON JAPANESE B ENCEPHALITIS VIRUS (3)

ON THE HEMAGGLUTINATION BY THE SENSITIZED ERYTHROCYTES WITH CHICK SERUM

Abstract

1) Adding flesch chick serum to the chick erythrocytes which had lost their reactivity on account of preserving over six weeks in modified Alsever's solution, their reactivity for hemagglutination could be observed again.
2) Even the guinea pig erythrocytes sensitized with chick serum were agglutinated by Japanese B Encephalitis virus, and the hemagglutination was specifically inhibited by the antiserum.
