Abstract

Preparations of highly concentrated simian foamy virus type 1 (SFV1)agglutinate guinea pig red blood cells. The agglutination occurs both at 22 degrees and 37 degrees C. It is inhibited by specific antisera against SFV1 but also by antisera prepared against several other types of simian foamy viruses.
