Abstract
The adjuvant activity of the synthetic muramyl-dipeptide (MDP) N-acetyl-muramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine upon immunization of mice with BSA or SRBC was studied. MDP was found to significantly increase BSA-antibody formation and to favour the induction of anaphylactic reactions to BSA. In contrast, under the conditions employed, MDP only weakly stimulated the immune response to SRBC.Entities:
