title: [Study of the methods of specific desensitization therapy in immediate hypersensitivity to Streptococcus under experimental conditions. 1. Immunological data].
abstract: Three series of experiments were conducted on 427 guinea pigs. A model of allergy of the immediate type was obtained by 3-fold subcutaneous injections of 2 mg of lysed streptoallergen with an imcomplete Freund's adjuvant. The effect of allergens (corpuscular--vaccines, lysed, and streptoallergens after Ando-Verzhikovsky) varying by physico-chemical properties was studied in the first experimental series. The best hyposensitizing action was produced by vaccine used for the study of the influence of various doses on the sensitized organism. Two doses were approved: the threshold one (diluted 10 times) and the subthreshold one (diluted 10000 times). The use of the threshold doses caused reduction of increased sensitivity of the immediate type. In the III experimental series this dose was injected subcutaneously, intradermally, and intravenously. Subcutaneous method proved to produce a more marked hyposensitizing action in comparison with other methods.
