Hemagglutinating Antibodies to Nocardia asteroides

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1966
tized to nocardia antigens have been described in many reports. The animals were sensitized by various routes including intraperitoneal injections and intratesticular injections with the incorporation of adjuvant (Drake and Henrici, 1943). Dyson and Slack (1963) reported that the method of antigen injection caused no noticeable difference in the ...
