Popis: | In 1924, Arkwright et al. suggested that the diphtheria toxin was destroyed by vitamin C Since then. several investigators accepted their opinion, but some others were opposed to it.Present authors experienced that the toxic activity of tetanus toxin in mice is obviously decreased by vitamin C, while the vitamin C has no power to decrease or destroy the toxicity of S. paratyphi B endotoxin.The authors, hereafter, will extend studies on the problems that the tetanus toxin is altered into toxoid. or deconstructed by vitamin C. |
