Abstract
Cell suspensions from various representative cultures of actinomycetes were subjected to sonic vibrations. From the homogeneous suspensions which resulted satisfactory antigens for agglutination and precipitin tests were prepd. Rabbits were immunized on long-period schedules, and satisfactory specific immune sera produced. Techniques for agglutination and precipitin tests are described, which would appear to be useful in the serological study of the actinomycetes.Keywords
