    Abstract:
    After intradermal immunization with a mixture of Corynebacterium parvum (C. parvum) and ovalbumin guinea pigs show a markedly increased anamnestic response to an intradermal booster of ovalbumin as compared to controls treated with ovalbumin only. At the same time a reaction of delayed type hypersensitivity is observed in the treated animals, but not in controls. The enhanced anamnestic response as well as the posivitive skin reaction were transferred to strain 2 histocompatible guinea pigs by peripheral blood leukocytes as well as by peritoneal exudate cells. Passive transfer was not obtained after prior irradiation of donor animals.
