Apparent production of 2 types of antibdoies by a single cell.
Immunization of mice with bacterial, sheep red cells coated with antigen resulted in apparent production of antibody-forming plaques with specificities for both hemolysis and bactericidal activity. The secondary response for production of these bifunctional types of plaques could be induced by red blood cells or bacteria alone. A significant mutual suppression of immune response between the two immunizing agents was observed.
