Cryoglobinaemia in rabbits hyperimmunized with a polyvalent pneumococcal vaccine

Abstract

During the anamnestic response, the sera of four rabbits immunized with a polyvalent pneumococcal vaccine contained large amounts of cryoglobulins belonging to the G and M immunoglobulin classes. These cryoglobulins appeared to possess antibody activity since they agglutinated a suspension of the pneumococci that was used for immunization.
