Immunofluorescence and electron microscopy results. A) Typical multinucleated giant cells with a clear seroreactivity of AG16 antigens, determined by using an immunofluorescence assay with positive anti–foamy virus serum, on BHK-21–infected cells cocultivated with stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells. B) Electron microscopy of ultrathin sections from cells infected by AG16 foamy virus.
