[The nonspecific changes in the immune system to the administration of the membrane-ribosomal fraction of the causative agent of pseudotuberculosis].

Nonspecific changes in different elements of the immune system of animals under the action of Y. pseudotuberculosis membrane-ribosomal fraction (MRF) with high protective potency have been studied for the purpose of the analysis of the preparation for immunological safety. MRF has been shown to produce no changes in humoral immune response to antigens of different nature or to enhance this response, to produce no essential effect on the intensity of the reaction of delayed hypersensitivity to sheep red blood cells and to stimulate phagocytic processes in peritoneal macrophages and polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
