Absence of XMRV antibodies in CFS patients by Western blot (WB) analysis. Representative WB results for CFS cases from Wichita and Georgia identified after unblinding. Determination of MuLV specific reactivity is determined by comparison of observed seroreactivity to polytropic MuLV-infected HeLa antigens and uninfected HeLa antigens in upper and lower panels, respectively. Lanes 1 - 4 and 5 - 8 are plasma from CFS cases from the population based studies in Georgia and Wichita, respectively; lanes 9 - 12 are physician-referred CFS cases from the Georgia Registry study. MuLV positive and negative goat serum controls are labelled.
