Abstract
THE increased interest in viral diseases in recent years, particularly in the field of laboratory diagnosis, has stimulated more and more laboratories to undertake work with these agents. Diagnostic procedures that formerly were to be found only in periodicals have now been collected in a single volume by Francis and others,1 who present them in a manner for ready reference for the average worker in the diagnostic laboratory. The availability of antigens§ for use in the complement-fixation test makes it possible for any laboratory familiar with this technic to detect an increased antibody titer for a number of viral agents. . . .
