Neutralising and haemagglutination inhibiting antibodies reacting with
bovine parvovirus were detected in human immunoglobulin preparations
(Beriglobin HS(R), Gamma-Venin(R), Venimmun(R)). Antibodies were also
detected by ELISA and immunoblots in bovine sera which reacted with th
e recombinant VP1/2 antigen of human parvovirus B19. A cross reaction
between human and bovine parvovirus was therefore demonstrated.
