Studies on Cultures and Broth Filtrates of Staphylococci. II

From the Wilmer Institute of Ophthalmology, Johns Hopkins University and Hospital, Baltimore, Maryland

Abstract

The reactions of different types of rabbits to different types of filtrates are summarized in table 1 and confirm the findings of Burnet (2) and Parker (5) that immunity can be induced by intradermal injection of staphylococcus filtrates. This immunity manifests itself by a change in the skin reactions and a decrease in the lethal effect of toxic filtrates. Variation in reaction of rabbits is associated with the rabbits reaction to barium sulphide depilatory and probably the heredity of the animal.
