An investigation was made on 90 white mice subject to x irradiation, using a dose of 335 r (Series I), to vaccination with a brucellosis vaccine (Series II), and to a combined action of these factors (Series III and IV). When the mice received a total irradiation with a dose of 335 r, the leukocytes in the spleen imprints contained a moderate amount of glycogen varying considerably during a fortnight. The x irradiation of the same dose, followed by the action of the brucellosis vaccine, gave rise to an abrupt drop in the glycogen contert of the leukocytes. Under the influence of antigen, followed by x irradiation, a considerable amount of glycogen in the leukocytes and the presence of antibodies in the blood were observed. (auth)
