Abstract
Intravenous administration of sheep red blood cells resulted in a deficient initial antibody response and provoked a much lower concentration of plaque forming cells in the blood of splenectomized dogs than in the control group. The in vitro serum opsonizing activity on Escherichia coli M-S-15 remained normal after splenectomy, and no difference was found between the test and the control group in the intravascular clearance rate of bacteria injected intravenously.
