Archives of Virology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

A panel of 15 monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) against hog cholera virus (HCV) was produced and each Mab was characterized according to its viral protein specificity, virus-neutralizing activity and immunoreactivity with a large collection of HCV isolates.
