title: The assay of gosling hepatitis virus and antibody by spermagglutination and spermagglutination-inhibition. II. Spermagglutination-inhibition.
abstract: Spermagglutination by gosling hepatitis virus was specifically inhibited by sera from sick and convalescent goslings exposed to experimental and natural infection, by hyperimmune horse serum and by sera from vaccinated geese. When compared with passive protection of goslings, neutralization of egg infectivity and precipitation techniques, the spermagglutination-inhibition technique was found to be a highly sensitive serological procedure for antibody detection and assay.
