PMCID: PMC271201  PMID: 6470099

Abstract

The immunoglobulin M and G specific immune response of humans to echovirus 11 proteins during an echovirus 11 outbreak was studied by the immunoblot technique. Whereas immunoglobulin G antibodies were directed most exclusively to the VP 1 protein, the immunoglobulin M antibodies were directed against VP 1, VP 2, and VP 3.
