The effect of pre- and neonatally injected diphtheria toxoid on the homologous responsiveness of young guinea pigs. A preliminary report

D W WEISS et al. Immunology. 1962 Mar.

Abstract

A number of guinea pigs injected prenatally with diphtheria toxoid were found to be incapable of making flocculating antibodies to the antigen after immunization in early adulthood. Several of these animals showed an exaggerated susceptibility to diphtheria toxin.
