RESUMO

Groups of dogs were immunized with sheep erythrocytes administered either directly into the lower respiratory tract (bronchoalveolar spaces) or intravenously. The hemolytic plaque-forming response (Jerne plaque assay) was studied in various canine lymphoid populations (bronchoalveolar cells, hilar lymph nodes, peripheral lymph nodes, and splenic and peripheral blood leukocytes) as a function of time after immunization and as a function of the dose of antigen administered. Serum hemagglutinating antibody titers against sheep erythrocytes were also measured.
