title: [Test of the efficacy of low-molecular tetanus antitoxin].
abstract: Experiments on rabbits, white rats and mice with experimental tetanus intoxication were made to study and compare the efficacy of the tetanus antitoxin Diaferm-3 and its Fab'-fragments. Fab'-fragments were discovered to be more effective in the early stages of intoxication, when injected in fairly high doses and partially when administered intracarotidally. Intracisternal injection of the antitoxin Diaferm-3 appeared the most effective for the treatment of demonstrable intoxication.
