title: [Experimental findings after application of Kveim antigen. I. Sensibilization of guinea pigs by mycobacterium avium (author's transl)].
abstract: Guinea pigs were injected intraperitoneally with different types of mycobacterium avium (serotypes 1, 2 and 3). 4 weeks later followed the injection of Kveim antigen into the foodpats. Beside a high rate of non-specific foreign body reactions in all groups, histological pictures resembling a positive Kveim test were found only in the group of animals which received Mycobacterium avium serotype 1.
