Neutralization of Salmonella toxin-induced elongation of Chinese hamster ovary cells by cholera antitoxin.

P D Sandefur, J W Peterson
PMCID: PMC421469  PMID: 67084

Abstract

A partially purified preparation of the delayed skin permeability factor from Salmonella typhimurium caused Chinese hamster ovary cells to elongate. The elongation effect and the skin test activity were blocked by monospecific rabbit antisera against cholera toxin and against the B fragment of cholera toxin,
