The neutralizing characteristics of monoclonal antibodies directed to 4 antigenic sites on the hemagglutinin-neuraminidase glycoprotein (HN) of Newcastle disease virus were determined. Neutralization by each antibody resulted in a persistent fraction (1-17%) of nonneutralized virus which varied depending on the HN site recognized, but not on the antibody. The addition of antibodies to all 4 sites on the HN was required to give a level of neutralization comparable with that obtained with polyclonal mouse antiserum. The high persistent fractions were not due to viral aggregates, a high level of variants in the virus stock, the use of insufficient antibody, low antibody avidity or an effect peculiar to the use of the chicken cells as host. The addition of rabbit anti-mouse Ig to the persistent fraction left by any of the antibodies resulted in a further reduction in infectivity, often by as much as 2 logs. Thus, some viral particles are capable of binding antibody while retaining their infectivity. The implications of these findings to the mechanism of neutralization are discussed.
