Inhibition by pomegranate juice (PJ) of binding to gp120 of antibodies to synthetic peptides from the gp120 sequence. Wells of polystyrene plates coated with gp120 IIIB were incubated with 4-fold diluted PJ for 1 h at 37°C. After removal of PJ, the wells were washed, and 50-fold diluted anti-peptide antisera [21] were added. Bound IgG was quantitated by ELISA. PJ was not added to control wells. Decreases of absorbance, as compared to the respective control wells, are plotted.
