Specificity:

This antibody recognises the Saint Louis Encephalitis virus strain (MSI-7) envelope glycoprotein.
The antibody cross reacts with other SLE strains and related Flaviviruses as determined by Immunofluorescence and Haemagglutination assays (Roehrig et al.).
Clone 6b6c-1 reacts with others menbers of Flaviviridae including Japanese Encepahalitis (Nakayama), West Nile (EG101), Murray Valley Encephalitis (Original), Yellow Fever (17D), Dengue 1 (Hawaii), Dengue 2 (New Guinea C), Dengue 3 (H87) and Dengue 4 (H241).
