Abstract
The success of immunofluorescent staining with virus-specific IgM varies with the temperature of incubation of virus-infected cells, as well as with cell density. Absence of intracellular staining by IgM can be due to blocking at the cell membrane or to the physical effect of cell confluence which reduces the contrast of surface staining.
