abstract：:Recombinant and pure "natural" IL-1 and IL-2 were compared with the muramyl dipeptide (MDP) component of Freund's adjuvant for their capacity to enhance the humoral immune response against foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) virus antigen. Using a dose of this antigen which alone did not give a detectable immune response, an...
