Summary Normal mice were injected with one or other of two antigens, the polysaccharide specific soluble substance of type III pneumococci and the MEL strain of type A influenza virus. The time of appearance and titre of serum antibody to each antigen were determined. No evidence was found for an inhibitory effect of interferon on the production of antibody.
