[Antagonistic effect of a fraction isolated from Corynebacterium granulosum toward cyclophosphamide immunosuppression in mice].

A fraction isolated from Corynebacterium granulosum was shown to be capable of increasing significantly the antibody level in response to immunization of the Mouse with sheep red blood cells. The animals stimulated with this fraction become very resistant to the effect of cyclophosphamide. In contrast, the action of the fraction in previously immuno-suppressed animals is nil or very low.

Titration of antibodies to tetanus toxoid by agglutination of purified tetanus toxoid sensitized latex particles.

The method of sensitized latex particle agglutination which we have devised allows the selection of samples of plasma for the preparation of immunoglobulins. The population of thus selected samples is the same as is selected by the in vivo test, having a titer greater than or equeal to 6 IU/ml. The test gives a clear-cut difference between the positive and negative results and does not give any prozone phenomenon. It can be used extensively, as the batches of sensitized latex particles may be stored for quite a long time.
