Relationships of coagulases and agglutinins in vitro and in vivo to Staphylococcus pyogenes

A Henderson 1, J Brodie 1
PMCID: PMC480610  PMID: 14063334

Abstract

Relationships are shown between coagulases and certain agglutinogens of staphylococcal serotypes. Animal experiments further show that actively acquired artificial immunity to coagulases also confers protection against challenge with `coagulase-agglutinogen' related staphylococci, the degree of protection depending upon the route of challenge.
