Antigenic Characterization of Street Rabies Virus Isolates from Nigeria Using Monoclonal-Antibodies

Twenty isolates of street rabies virus were recovered in mouse neutroblastoma cells from 84 rabies suspect brain specimens from Nigeria dogs and a cat. They were characterized with the Tübingen monoclonal antibody panels directed against nucleocapsid and glycoprotein antigens. Antigenic variatons we...
