Abstract
Gamma irradiation in a dose of 5·0 times 106 rad reduced the pyrogenicity of London tap water but 10·0 times 106 rad was required for it to pass the B.P. test, 20 times 106 rad reduced the pyrogenicity of a pyrogen from S. abortus equi but 25 times 106 rad was required before it passed the B.P. test.Keywords
