| Abstract: | Brain tissues from 38 patients with a clinical suspicion of encephalitis or encephalopathy were examined by two immunoenzymatic techniques for the detection of arboviral antigen. Group B arboviral antigen was identified in 23 of these tissues. This simple method could be used for the diagnosis of the causal agent of encephalitis. |
