Abstract: | Summary The effect of previous sensitization to C. parvum, by cross-reacting antigens from other bacteria, on the immunostimulatory effects of C. parvum treatment were studied in germ-free and conventional mice. It was found that the development of splenomegaly and specific delayed hypersensitivity following C. parvum injection were similar in both germ-free mice and conventional mice.Supported by U.S. Public Health Service Grant No. 5S07 RR05705 and NIH Grant no.
