Serologic Response of Primates to Influenza Viruses

Serologic Response of Primates to Influenza Viruses

Summary Nonhuman primate (chimpanzees and baboons) sera were compared with human sera for serological activity to influenza viruses A/Victoria A/3/75 (H3N2) and A/New Jersey 8/76 (Hsw1N1). The results obtained indicate that all three primates reacted similarly to the influenza virus that was present...

Zusammenfassung:Summary Nonhuman primate (chimpanzees and baboons) sera were compared with human sera for serological activity to influenza viruses A/Victoria A/3/75 (H3N2) and A/New Jersey 8/76 (Hsw1N1). The results obtained indicate that all three primates reacted similarly to the influenza virus that was present in this area (A/Victoria). The data suggested that the nonhuman primates are not a potential reservoir but react to infection as do humans.
