Abstract
Rate of seroconversions to adenoviruses, cytomegaloviruses (CMV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) was studied from 1965-1973 in 200 infants living in a closed infantile community. The transversal demographic table method was used to evaluate the results of sera examined. Seroconversion occurs earlier in the case of adenoviruses with also possess in higher intensity of infection. The intensity of seroconversions to EBV capsid antigen is a little lower, but of all three viruses examined, the spreading of infection is the slowest. On the other hand, seroconversion to CMV occurs earlier than EBV capsid antigen, but intensity of infection by this virus is lowest.
