Abstract
New NA49 data from hadron+proton and hadron+Pb interactions are used to extract detailed information on projectile isospin effects and baryon, baryon pair and strangeness production. Consequences for the interpretation of hadron production and strangeness enhancement in nuclear collisions are discussed.
