Abstract
13 rhesus monkeys were immunised with the beta-subunit of HCG or its fragments conjugated
with tetanus toxoid or haptens for periods of 3 to 12 months. Of these, 9 monkeys
had been given the tetanus toxoid conjugates. Immediate, Arthus and delayed type of
hypersensitivity skin reactions to intradermal HCG were found to be negative in all
the animals. However, 2 of the hyperimmunized monkeys in which complete Freund's adjuvant
was used, showed delayed hypersensitivity skin reactions when challenged with tetanus
toxoid.
