Abstract
An anti-complement immunofluorescence test utilizing cytomegalovirus immune hamster sera specifically identified cytomegalovirus isolates showing an early, typical cytopathic effect. Inclusion of a control conjugate against adenovirus group antigen permitted correct identification, as adenoviruses, of a few isolates initially suspected of being cytomegalovirus on the basis of cytopathic effect.Keywords
