Specific suppression of rat IgE responses with milk from immunized females and with feeds of serum antibody

S A Roberts, M W Turner
PMCID: PMC1453993  PMID: 6848452

Abstract

Suckling by ovalbumin sensitized females suppressed the IgE anti-ovalbumin response of young rats. Suppression was also achieved after feeding rat pups with (i) immune adult rat serum and (ii) isolated serum IgG containing anti-ovalbumin antibody.
