Neutralizing antibody produced against one virus will neutralize all other viruses of the same subtype A different subtype is defined when neutralizing antibody produced for one subtype will not neutralize viruses from other subtypes Subtypes are defined by antigenic characteristics of the virus Virus isolates will occasionally cross react with more than one reference antibodies Hemagglutination inhibit
