ANTIGENIC AND IMMUNOLOGICAL INTERRELATIONS BETWEEN BRUCELLA AND TULAREMIA CAUSATIVE AGENTS

Abstract

Brucella and the causative agents of tularemia displayed both similar features (amino acid composition, capacity to adsorb brucellosis phage, agglutination and complement-fixing activity, stimulation of opsonins, cross allergogenicity) as well as differences (cultural and fermentative, electron microscope study of cell morphology, composition of saccharides, results of precipitation in gel).
