Letter to the Editor Evidence of Serological Cross-Reactivity between Genotype 1 and Genotype 3 Erythrovirus Infections
Corcoran, A. and Doyle, S. and Allain, J.P. and Candotti, D. and Parsyan, A. (2005) Letter to the Editor Evidence of Serological Cross-Reactivity between Genotype 1 and Genotype 3 Erythrovirus Infections. Journal of Virology, 79 (8). pp. 5238-5239. AbstractCandotti and colleagues (1) reported the prevalence of a
third strain of human erythrovirus, genotype 3 (V9), in the
Ghanaian population and, in part, concluded that a genotype 1
(B19)-based assay failed to detect genotype 3 immunoglobulin
G (IgG) in 38.5% of Ghanaian samples containing genotype 3
antibodies. We disagree with this conclusion for the following
reasons. | Keywords: | Erythrovirus Infections |
