Abstract

Salmonella and Shigella organisms used as absorbing cells for preparing group-or type-specific Salmonella O or Shigella antisera may be reused four or more times without qualitatively reducing their capacity to remove undesired antibodies. The cells may be reclaimed by heating in flowing steam or by treatment with N/5 HCl. The former method is preferred.
