The Relationship of Leptospira Icterohae-Morrhagiae and the Akiyami Type a Strain of Leptospira as Determined by Cross Immunization Experiments in Guinea Pigs
Abstract
Summary
- 1. Guinea pigs actively immunized against the Boston strain of L. icterohaemorrhagiae are immune against Type A of the Akiyami strain of leptospira.
- 2. Guinea pigs actively immunized against Type A of the Akiyami strain of leptospira are immune against the Boston strain of L. icterohaemorrhagiae.
- 3. These two strains are indistinguishable by the cross immunity tests.
