Study of Nephropathia Epidemica (NE) in Sweden

Abstract

A total of 3,514 punch-necropsy-specimens (voles) have been tested. The results on both the Puumala virus antibody and antigen ELISA tests, as well as information on the specific trapping date, location, species, and weight, have been entered into a computer database. Monoclonal antibodies to Puumala virus are currently being developed. Mouse hybridomas have been fused with B- cells from Clethrionomus gareolus. Approximately 100 hybridomas have made antibodies to Puumala virus; a few have been recloned and appear to be stable. (ttl)
