Notes:
The effect of systemic administration of a typhoid vaccine (T.A.B.) on the marginal zone of rat spleen has been investigated by light and electron microscopy. This bacterial preparation damages granulocytes in the circulating and marginated pools and the damaged cells are sequestered in the spleen, particularly in the marginal zone. The activities of the vaccine are attributed to its endotoxic properties. Terminations of arterial vessels in the marginal zone are also described.
