Abstract
Summary
Specific complement-fixing antigens were prepared from Lansing-, Brunhilde-, and Leon-infected tissues by sedimentation of the viruses in the high speed centrifuge and using the resuspended sediment as antigen. Specific complement fixing antiserums were produced more rapidly in Lansing immunized monkeys when the virus inoculum was incorporated into a depot-producing adjuvant. It appears that the adjuvant treatment as recommended by Salk is needed for production of Brunhilde and Leon complement fixing antiserum.
