| Abstract: | Experimental pollinosis was modelled on guinea pigs. The animals were placed in a cell in which an allergen-water-dialyzed extract of ambrosia pollen was dispersed by means of coaxial pulveriser. Homocytotropic antibodies serving as indices of animal sensitization to the specific allergen formed in guinea pigs as a result of aerosol sensitization. Sensitization of the animals to the ambrosia allergen was accompanied by an increase of sensitivity of the broncho-pulmonary apparatus and was characterized by the bronchospastic reaction in resolving inhalation or inrtavenous injection of a specific allergen. |
