THE SKIN RESPONSE OF RABBITS TO NON-HEMOLYTIC STREPTOCOCCI : II. ATTEMPTS TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE SECONDARY REACTION IS OF THE NATURE OF AN ARTHUS PHENOMENON

Abstract

An attempt has been made to interpret on the lines of the Arthus phenomenon the secondary reaction which follows the intradermal inoculation of certain non-hemolytic streptococci into rabbits; but evidence in support of this interpretation of the reaction has not been obtained. The facts make it seem probable that if this secondary reaction is due to a hypersensitive state it must be one more closely allied to the tuberculin reaction than to the Arthus phenomenon.
