Abstract
Rabbits were immunized with either bovine serum albumin or human red cell stroma conjugated with p-bromo-phenylisocyanate and the antibody thus produced was measured with yet another bromophenylureido-protein so that in each instance antibody only to the phenylureido moiety was measured. Half of the rabbits in each group were treated with cortisone during the immunization period. Cortisone reduced antibody production to the conjugated BSA but affected antibody to the conjugated stroma little, if at all.Keywords
