Antigenic comparisons were made between the human A/Hong Kong/68 (H3N2) virus and a collection of influenza A viruses of swine origin. Haemagglutination-inhibition and neuraminidase-inhibition tests were used in addition to immunoprecipitin tests with monospecific antisera prepared against purified haemagglutinin and neuraminidase preparations. The antigenic relationships revealed by the studies are summarized as follows: (1) swine/Taiwan/7310/70 virus contained envelope antigens that were antigenically indistinguishable from those of A/Hong Kong/68 virus, (2) "classical" strains of swine influenzavirus related to A/swine/Iowa/15/30 (Hsw1N1) isolated between 1930 and 1967 contained neuraminidase that was antigenically distinct from that of A/Hong Kong/68 virus but related to that of human A0 and A1 viruses, and (3) the haemagglutinins of certain strains of "classical" influenza A virus appeared to show a minor antigenic relationship with the haemagglutinin of A/Hong Kong/68 virus. Immunoprecipitin tests suggested that this relationship was confined to only one of the two antigenic components of the haemagglutinin subunit. The antigenic relationships are discussed in respect of possible epidemiological relationships between human and swine influenza A viruses. It is proposed that the swine/Taiwan isolates be designated A/swine/Taiwan/70 (H3N2), indicating their antigenic identity with the human A/Hong Kong/1/68 virus.
