PC Reading, U Holmskov and EM Anders Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Victoria, Australia. The antiviral activity against rotaviruses of three bovine collectins, conglutinin, collectin-43 (CL-43) and bovine SP-D, was examined. As shown by ELISA and Weste...
