IMMUNOLOGICAL STUDIES ON BACTERIAL THIAMINASE : (II) INHIBITORY EFFECT OF THE SERA OF RABBITS IMMUNIZED WITH BACTERIAL THIAMINASE UPON THE ENZYMIC ACTIVITY
The rabbit antiserum immunized with bacterial thiaminase inhibited the thiamine decomposing activity of the crude suspension of thiaminase. The inhibitory effect on thiaminase I or II was shown to be a specific reaction. The crude suspension of thiaminase from which the precipitate produced in precipitation reaction were removed lost its thiamine decomposing activity.
