چکیده

Passive transfer of humoral immunity to experimental syphilis in rabbits was accomplished with large doses of hyperimmune serum. When the serum was administered before inoculation of Treponema pallidum, the onset of chancres was delayed; when it was given early in the course of infection, a transient period of arrest and healing of the chancres was imposed.

Antibodies produced by rabbits immunized with visna virus.

Immunization of New Zealand White rabbits with purified visna virus elicited antibody activity demonstrated by passive hemagglutination (PHA), complement fixation (CF), and indirect immunofluorescent tests. The antibody activities of hyperimmune sera and Sephadex G-200 fractions of the sera were studied. It was found that the PHA test was 10 to 100 times more sensitive than the CF test in detec...

Passive Immunization of Pasteurella multocida Infected Rabbits

We raised neutralizing antibodies against Pasteurella multocida (PM) in the serum of rabbits and used these antibodies as immunotherapy in PM-infected rabbits. For this purpose five rabbits were vaccinated three times at 21 days interval, using formalized oil base haemorrhagic septicaemia vaccine (OBHSV). A high titer (256 IHA units) of anti-Pasteurella multocida-antibodies in blood serum was d...

Passive Transfer of the Action of Freund's Adjuvant by Serum of Rabbits Injected with the Adjuvant.

Serum collected at intervals from rabbits treated with Freund's complete adjuvant was injected together with fluid diphtheria toxoid into recipient rabbits. Control rabbits received toxoid alone or toxoid mixed with serum of untreated donors. There was no antibody response in the controls or in recipients of serum obtained from donors 3 days after adjuvant treatment. Recipients of serum obtaine...

Active and Passive Immunity to Pneumococcus Infection Induced in Rabbits by Immunization with R Pneumococci

1. Rabbits, vaccinated by repeated intravenous injections of suspensions of heat-killed R pneumococci, acquire a marked degree of active immunity to infection with the virulent S forms of Pneumococcus Types I and II. Previously (1) it was shown that the immunization of rabbits with R cells induces active resistance to Type III infection. This immunity is effective when the infecting organisms a...

Production of Hyperimmune Serum against Infectious Bursal Disease Virus in Rabbits

The early and accurate diagnosis of infectious bursal disease requires known hyperimmune serum against the disease. In this study, an attempt was made to raise anti-infectious bursal disease virus hyperimmune serum in rabbits. The infectious bursal disease (IBD) virus was isolated from field outbreaks, identified, purified, titrated and its infectivity titre was determined in embryonated eggs. ...
