Abstract

Multiple intraperitoneal injections of horse serum given to domestic fowls at five different ages resulted in eosinophilia in 55% of adults and in 36% of the younger birds, the highest individual eosinophil level reached being 50% of the differential white cell count. The primary eosinophilic response in fowls was between injections 7 and 36 and there was a secondary response between injections 32 and 72.
