Studies on the Serological Properties of Erythromelalgia--Related Poxvirus
Abstract: The serological reactivity of erythromelalgia-related poxvirus (ERPV)which originally was isolated from the throab swab of a patient with eryhth-romelalgia was analyzed in the present study. Rabbits immunized by foot-padinoculation of ERPV started to produce neutralizing (NT) antibody to ERPVat 2 weeks postinfection (p. i.). The peak NT antibody titers were observedat 4 weeks p. i. and then began to decline. When eight antisera including sheepanti-Orf, bovine anti-parapox, rabbit antivaccinia, rhesus monkey...
