ABSTRACT:
Linear and cyclic peptides of the E1 and C protein of the rubella virus are disclosed. These peptides and analogues, mixtures and combinations of them are useful in detecting and quantifying antibodies raised against the rubella virus. They are also useful in raising antibodies to the rubella virus for use in the diagnosis of and protection against rubella viral infections.
