Crossed immunoelectrophoretic analysis and viral neutralizing activity of five monospecific antisera against five different herpes simplex virus glycoproteins.
Crossed immunoelectrophoresis of Triton X-100 solubilized HSV-infected cells has identified several major HSV glycoprotein antigens in the precipitating profile. Immunization of rabbits with the corresponding precipitates resulted in the production of monospecific antisera against the antigen part of the precipitate. The immunological importance of five different HSV glycoproteins in respect of their representation on the outer virion envelope as targets for neutralizing antibodies was evaluated by comparison of immunoprecipitating activity and neutralizing potency of the corresponding monospecific antisera.
