Abstract
Measles virus specific antibodies in sera from 29 patients with chronic active hepatitis have been examined using standard serological tests and immunoelectrophoretic techniques. Significantly raised CF antibody titres against measles virus antigen were demonstrated in 50% of the sera. The major immunoprecipitate obtained by immunoelectrophoresis was shown to contain aggregates of measles virus nucleocapsids. Antibodies against the haemagglutinin antigen of the virus envelope were also raised and were demonstrated by line immunoelectrophoresis.
