Abstract
A panel of mice hybrids was obtained, producing monoclonal antibodies (MCAB), which are capable to differentiate the vaccine and wild strains of polioviruses of the I and III types in the reaction of virus neutralization (RVN). The obtained MCAB activity was estimated on laboratory reference-strains and on the field isolates of polioviruses isolated in the territory of Ukraine in 1995-1998. The results of RVN with obtained MCAB were compared with the data of intratypical differentiation carried out with the use of standard MCAB from the Pasteur Institute as well as with results of the chain polymerization reaction (CPR) and immunoenzyme analysis (IEA) with cross-adsorbed sera. High correlation has been demonstrated between the results of the intratypical differentiation with obtained MCAB and data of the rest of the experiments.
