Abstract
Evidence has been obtained that where the adsorbing capacity for Vi agglutinins is known to be present it is also possible to show affinity for Vi bacteriophages. However, from the conduct of paratyphoid C strains containing Vi antigen it appears that the presence of Vi antigen causes only the adsorption of Vi bacteriophages, but that in the production of lysis by these bacteriophages other factors play a part.Keywords
