SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
It has been said that the development of vaccines against a variety of infectious diseases is among the greatest triumphs of immunology. In the beginning it may have been thought that acq uired resistance against infectious agents is nothing but another aspect of the immune response, studied with soluble and particulate antigens.
