Diagnosis of California La Crosse virus infection by counterimmunoelectrophoresis.
La Crosse virus cell culture-derived soluble antigen was used in a counterimmunoelectrophoresis procedure to assess the presence or absence of La Crosse antibodies in 79 paired acute- and convalescent-phase human sera. The counterimmunoelectrophoresis test appeared to measure the same antibody as the complement fixation test but was more sensitive and rapid.
