Through 35 days Mecadox was admixed to feed rations for chicken, 40 days of age, and inhibited immunogenesis which, generally, is reflected in lowering of antibody titre and gamma globulin level as well as in quantitative variation of the differential leucocyte count. Change of immune reactivity in chicken treated with Mecadox and deviation from the normal are attributable to changes in the organs which are responsible for immunological processes (thymus and bursa), such as reduction of ascorbic acid levels in the adrenal gland.
在35天的时间里，将甲烯土霉素混入40日龄鸡的饲料中，其抑制了免疫发生，这通常表现为抗体滴度和γ球蛋白水平降低以及白细胞分类计数的定量变化。用甲烯土霉素处理的鸡的免疫反应性变化及与正常情况的偏差，归因于负责免疫过程的器官（胸腺和法氏囊）的变化，如肾上腺中抗坏血酸水平的降低。
