Abstract: | Neutralization of enterotoxins of Vibrio cholerae 569 B and Escherichia coli 10407 by antitoxins to V. cholerae 569 B, E. coli 334, 408-3 and 10407 was studies by intradermal inoculation test in the rabbit. Neutralization of V. cholerae enterotoxin by homologous as well as heterologous antisera of E. coli was observed, except that there was no neutralization of the enterotoxin by antiserum to E. coli 408-3 enterotoxin. Neutralization of E. coli enterotoxin to a varied extent by homologous as well as all heterologous antisera, including that of V. cholerae 569 B antitoxin, was also observed. |
