Abstract

To detect heterophile antigens similar to those of human small intestinal tissue in organisms responsible for particularly dangerous infections, strains varying in their degree of virulence were used:Vibrio cholerae Vibrio El Tor, vibrios of Heiberg's VI group, water-inhabiting and nonagglutinating vibrios, and virulent and avirulent strain ofPasteurella pestis. Heterophile antigens were detected in strains ofV. cholrae, V. El Tor, nonagglutinating vibrios with the ability to cause cholera, and in the virulent strain,P. pestis 232. No reaction was obtained with all the other strains tested.
