Abstract: | There proved to be a serological similarity between the antigens of the human small intestine, the stomach and the liver, and the antigens of various cholera vibrio fractions. No antigenic similarity was revealed in examination of the heart and kidney. Heterogenous antigen was found not only in the somatic V. cholerae antigen, strain 569 (B), but also in the cholerogen-toxoid obtained from it. At present it is the most widespread prophylactic preparation. |
