Kinetics of neutralizing antibodies in patients naturally infected by H5N1 virus.
<h4>Background</h4>Little is known about the kinetics of anti-H5 neutralizing antibodies in naturally H5N1-infected patients with severe clinical illness or asymptomatic infection.<h4>Methods</h4>Using H5N1 microneutralisation (MN) and H5-pseudotype particle-based microneutra...
