Abstract
Summary
A strain of vaccinia, V1-010, was discovered which is defective in surface antigen production as detected by mixed agglutination. Evidence for existence of major and minor surface antigens on vaccinia-infected cells was obtained. Minor surface antigen could be distinguished from the major antigen serologically as well as by the pattern of mixed agglutination reactions. V1-010 was capable of producing minor surface antigen and hemagglutinin.
