Indirect radioimmunoblotting on nitrocellulose filters and ELISA on polystyrene plates were employed to test the specimens of the normal and tumor tissue of the mammary gland for antigens which cross react with antigens of structural proteins of mouse mammary gland carcinoma virus. The antigens were detected in 9 tumor specimens out of 25 under testing and in 1 out of 15 specimens of the normal tissue. Such antigens failed to be detected in fibroadenoma or tumors of other sites.
