Antibody directed against Marek's disease-associated tumor surface antigen can be eluted from Marek's disease tumor cells.

Antibody directed against Marek's disease-associated tumor surface antigen (MATSA) was eluted from tumor cells of lymphomas and peripheral blood lymphocytes that were isolated from Marek's disease virus-infected chickens. Feather follicular Marek's disease virus (MDV) antigen could not be demonstrated with this antibody by indirect immunofluorescent (IF) staining. Monoclonal antibody directed against MATSA could completely block the activity of eluted antibody and vice versa. By indirect IF staining using eluted antibody and fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) labelled antichicken globulin conjugate. MATSA-bearing cells were detected in MDV infected and herpes virus of turkey (HVT) vaccinated birds. Blocking of immunoglobulin molecules present on B-cells by anti-chicken globulin is critical in this test.

The ecology of adaptation to a new environment.

The intrainstitutional room transfer of 48 elderly residents was studied by direct behavior-mapping techniques. Data were obtained on the physical location, body position, and behavior of both residents and staff on a large number of tours of residential floors preceding and following the move. About half of the hypotheses suggesting that greater passivity and restriction in social space would occur following the move were supported. These responses were seen as adaptive in allowing the individual to comprehend the new environment prior to moving out more actively.
