title: Immunoelectrophoretic study on the host antigens of Sendai virus cultivated in different substrates (embryonated hen eggs and KB cells). Note II. Analysis of KB cell host antigens.
abstract: It could be demonstrated by immunoelectrophoretic analysis that the host antigen incorporated in the envelopes of Sendai virus cultivated in KB cells (Sendai/KB) is characteristic of these cells and does not occur in the envelopes of the same virus grown in the embryonated hen egg (Sendai/egg). This host antigen appears from the first passage in KB cells and is constantly maintained over subsequent passages. The glycoproteins released by Triton X-100 disruption from Sendai/KB envelopes have a concomitant antigenic specificity for both virus and host. In the case of Sendai/egg virus, exclusively virus-specific macromolecules are also released.
