title: [A study of sera positive and doubtful for antibodies to the human immunodeficiency virus for the presence of HTLV-I-specific antibodies].
abstract: The results of examinations for the presence of antibody to HTLV-I of 205 sera which were positive or indefinite (doubtful) with regard to HIV are presented. No evidence indicating simultaneous infection with HIV and HTLV-I viruses in 18 HIV-positive subjects was obtained. Antibodies to gag-proteins p19 and p28 HTLV-I were detected in one serum showing primary reactivity in screening for HIV antibodies. Problems of HIV and HTLV-I occurrence and sensitivity of screening test systems are discussed.
