Abstract:In previous studies it was indicated that vaccines showing especially high protective powers in the "guinea pig test" also induce in these animals high titers of the complement-fixing antibodies (Donovick and Wyckoff, 1942a, TABLE 1 The antibody response of guinea pigs vaccinated with epidemic typhus vaccines having antigenic titers of 1:8 LOT NO. 0? VACCINE 27 31 32 34 35 39 40 41 43* * These lots show 3+ complement fixation at 1:16 dilution as antigens.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
