Two strains of type SAT 2 foot-and-mouth disease virus which gave high titres of haemagglutinin activity reacted type-specifically in direct haemagglutinationinhibition tests with reference, bovine convalescent antisera. Comparisons of the haemagglutination-inhibition and the serum neutralization tests using cattle sera showed that both were equally specific and sensitive for detecting virus antibody.
