Synthetic antigens. Antigen-binding cells to interpolymer of styrene and maleic acid (PSM) and sheep red blood cells in mice and rats immunized with PSM

Arch Immunol Ther Exp (Warsz). 1978;26(1-6):77-83.

Abstract

To study the mechanism of the immune response, a new type of synthetic antigen: interpolymer of styrene and maleic acid (PSM) was introduced in our laboratory. In our previous papers it was proved that PSM is immunogenic and antigenic in various animals PSM had also adjuvant properties.
