Inability of pyrogenic, purified Bordetella pertussis lipid A to induce interleukin-1 release by human monocytes.

abstract：:Twenty-six Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains from patients with cystic fibrosis were typed by the Fisher immunotyping scheme. Only 6 strains were agglutinated by a single typing serum, whereas 15 strains were agglutinated with more than one serum and 5 were not agglutinated by any serum. Neither the polyagglutinable nor ...
