THE capacity for antibody production is generally recognized as varying in different mammalian species1, but little attention appears to have been paid to variations which might result from differences in the route of antigen administration. The nature of such variation would seem useful information if optimal results are to be expected from experimental investigations which involve immuno-logical reactions in laboratory animals.
