Antisera were prepared in rabbits against two strains of sigma virus, from France and Hawaii respectively, using purified virus from cell cultures. All antisera had the same titre by immunofluorescence, 1/400 or 1/800, whether tested against the homologous or the heterologous virus. An antiserum prepared with the French strain neutralized the Hawaiian virus at a dilution of 1/800 both in vitro and in vivo. The Hawaiian virus was not neutralized to a significant extent by reference mouse ascitic fluids for 26 different vertebrate rhabdoviruses.
