The effect of the secretion of the cutaneous glands of the toad on certain immunological properties of animals

  • Microbiology and Immunity

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Summary

This work deals with the effect of the secretion of the cutaneous glands of toads on the dynamics of the agglutinin titer in rabbits and rats, as well as on the phagocytic activity of blood leukocytes in rats. The data obtained demonstrate that this substance increases the ability of the animal to form agglutinins, and stimulates the phagocytic activity of the blood leukocytes in rats.
