Résumé

La liquidation des antigènes et la production des précipitines et des macroglobulines à la suite de l'injection de sérum humain complet (mélangé à de l'adjuvant de Freund) ont été semblables chez lesXenopus laevis intacts et ceux qui avaient subi une splénectomie. Les résultats suggèrent qu'au stade amphibie, les zones extra-spléniques jouent un rôle important dans les réactions aux antigènes en circulation.
