Superiority of tissue-culture-grown antigens over egg-grown antigens for serologic diagnosis of influenza B virus infections

Acute and convalescent sera obtained from 10 adults and 21 children who were infected with influenza B virus were tested by hemagglutination inhibition. Of four antigens used, two tissue‐culture‐grown antigens were superior to either egg‐grown or egg‐grown, ether‐treated antigens in detecting fourfo...

Zusammenfassung:	Acute and convalescent sera obtained from 10 adults and 21 children who were infected with influenza B virus were tested by hemagglutination inhibition. Of four antigens used, two tissue‐culture‐grown antigens were superior to either egg‐grown or egg‐grown, ether‐treated antigens in detecting fourfold antibody rise during influenza B virus infection.
