Abstract:
Neutralizing antibodies play an important role in protection against filoviruses. However, the technique to assess neutralization titers with a replicating BSL-4 virus is limited. This chapter explains how to determine the neutralization titer in serum samples against Marburg virus (MARV). This method uses a replicating recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus expressing the MARV glycoprotein and the green fluorescent protein as a surrogate approach.
