Two E 2-specific MAbs had higher neutralizing antibody titers (782 to 34,117) and showed 4-to 13-fold differences in titers against the attenuated and virulent TGEV strains. Two E 2-specific MAbs had higher neutralizing antibody titers (782 to 34,117) and showed 4-to 13-fold differences in titers against the attenuated and virulent TGEV strains. In two previous studies, monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to the structural proteins of the attenuated (Purdue) strain of TGEV were described [9, 12] . These MAbs were further characterized in various comparative assays including cell culture immunofluorescence, virus neutralization, and radioimmunoprecipitation for reactivity against the Miller virulent and Purdue attenuated strains of TGEV. Anti-E 1 MAbs prepared against a mixture of virulent Miller 3 and Purdue attenuated strains of TGEV had virus neutralizing antibody titers only in the presence of guinea pig, rabbit or swine complement [22] . ./cache/cord-004755-rmnjs1t6.txt ./txt/cord-004755-rmnjs1t6.txt
