Abstract
1. Rubella complement-fixing (CF) and neutralizing antibodies are reported for eighty-one patients with congenital rubella, six adults with acute rubella, and a control series of fifty-four children. In some of the congenital rubella patients virus isolation and serum immunoglobulin levels are recorded, together with maternal antibody and immunoglobulin levels.
