Antigenically intermediate human adenovirus strain associated with conjunctivitis.

J C Hierholzer, F H Rodriguez Jr
PMCID: PMC273797  PMID: 6259204

Abstract

Two strains of an antigenically intermediate human adenovirus were isolated from eye specimens from cases of conjunctivitis. The viruses were doubly neutralized by antisera to adenoviruses 15 and 29 but possessed the hemagglutinins of adenovirus 8 or 9.
