Abstract
In a cohort study in children <4 years of age in Greenland MBL2 genotypes and EBV antibody levels were determined. EBV seropositivity was significantly lower and time to seroconversion increased in MBL insufficient compared with MBL sufficient children, indicating that MBL may be involved in primary EBV infection in infancy
