The onset of ability to produce haemolytic antibody to sheep erythrocytes does not appear in hamsters until 11 days after birth. However, when mouse erythrocytes were used as antigen an earlier onset of immunocompetence at 6 days after birth was detected. The hamster can make haemolytic antibody only 9.5 days after the appearance of lymphocytes in the thymus—this is sooner than any other species. This capacity is compared with other species on the basis of physiological development by age-equivalence.
仓鼠直到出生后11天才开始产生针对绵羊红细胞的溶血抗体。然而,当使用小鼠红细胞作为抗原时,在出生后6天就检测到免疫能力提前出现。仓鼠在胸腺中出现淋巴细胞后仅9.5天就能产生溶血抗体——这比其他任何物种都要早。根据年龄等效性,将这种能力与其他物种的生理发育情况进行了比较。
