On the Occurrence of Forssman Antigen in Trichinella Spiralis

[摘要] In seventeen cases of trichinosis the titers of agglutinins and hemolysins for sheep's erythrocytes were found to be within normal limits. Similar findings were obtained in two rabbits infected with Trichinella spiralis .Rabbits immunized against sheep's erythrocytes and guinea-pig's kidney did not develop precipitins for trichinella-antigen.The evidence available at present does not warrant the conclusion that Trichinella spiralis contains the Forssman antigen.
