title: Altered immune reactivity of mice born from mothers treated with ampicillin during gestation.
abstract: The cellular and humoral immune responses of 30-day-old mice born from mothers treated with ampicillin during pregnancy were studied. A lowering of cellular immunity, accompanied by a decrease in T lymphocyte percentage in lymph nodes, and an increase of humoral immune response were observed.
