Abstract
Summary
Immunologic unresponsiveness directed against delayed but not immediate hypersensitivity to protein antigen can be elicited in adult mice by exposing them to a buffer solution of antigen within a certain short, critical time after they have been vaccinated with the same antigen in water-in-oil emulsion. Further study of this phenomenon may improve understanding of and control over the mechanisms of induction of delayed and immediate hypersensitivities.
