Serum samples from 52 patients with malignant lymphoproliferative diseases and 12 clinically healthy subjects were tested by indirect immunofluorescence (IF) reaction for the presence of specific EB antibodies anti-VCA and active EBV infection. The tests revealed EB antibodies anti-VCA in 32 patients with lymphoproliferative diseases and in 2 clinically healthy subjects and active EBV infection in 18/32 and in 0/2 EB anti-VCA positive patients and clinically healthy subjects, respectively.
