Abstract
A human osteogenic sarcoma cell culture [E-155] is useful in the immunofluorescence serological test for detecting human cytomegalovirus antibody. These sarcoma cells are chronically infected with human cytomegalovirus and provide a constant number of immunofluorescence-positive cells.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
