Murakami, S

guinea pig produced by the Forssman antibody, a specific form of allergy, was studied. Anti-allergy due to a Forssman antibody in guinea-pigs was inhibited by 200 r wholebody x irradiation. The minimum lethal dose range was maximum in 2 weeks after irradiation and returned to normal in 3 weeks. The latent period before the typical shock and the time of shock death were delayed. The lung weight was decreased. A 100 r irradiation did not give the same effects as a 200 r irradiation, but the same tendency was observed. (Absts. Japan. Med., No. 7, 1960.)
