Antiplague Antibodies against Yersinia Pestis Fraction‐I Antigen in Serum from Rodents either Experimentally Infected or Captured in Harbor Areas of Japan, 1971–19771
Abstract Antiplague indirect hemagglutination tests were investigated with Yersinia pestis fraction‐I antigen and sera from experimentally infected rodents. The same tests with sera treated with acetone or acetone‐2‐mercaptoethanol were performed in parallel. Technical conditions were determined to...
