[Precipitation of the antigens of the causative agents of plague, glanders and melioidosis using aqueous saline extracts of various plant species].

The interaction of the aqueous saline extracts of 55 plant species with the antigens of the causative agents of plague, glanders and melioidosis in the reaction of immunodiffusion (RID) in gel has been studied. The aqueous saline extracts obtained from the seeds of 12 plant species have been revealed to possess precipitating capacity. At the same time these extract have been found to ensure, as a rule, RID with several antigens under test.
