RESUMO
Serum samples were collected from 120 healthy adult volunteers (105 Caucasians and 15 Negros) before and after immunization with meningococcal polysaccharide (MPS) group B vaccine. Antibodies to MPS group B were measured and sera were typed for several Gm and Km(1) allotypes. A significant association was found between the Km(1) allotype and immune response to MPS group B in Caucasians.
