Abstract

Summary and ConclusionsThe antigenic relationship of 3 strains of R. orientalis was studied by means of cross-neutralization tests. Antiserum produced in rabbits to the Kostival or Seerangayee strains neutralized the homologous strain only. However, antiserum produced in guinea pigs to the Host 21 strain showed a broader coverage.
