Book •
The Mechanism of Immunity in Animals to Diphtheria and Tetanus is a seminal paper published in 1890 by Emil von Behring and Shibasaburo Kitasato.
This groundbreaking work described the discovery of antitoxins and their role in conferring immunity against diphtheria and tetanus.
The research demonstrated that the blood serum of animals immunized against these diseases contained substances that neutralized the toxins produced by the bacteria.
This discovery laid the foundation for the development of serum therapy, a revolutionary approach to treating infectious diseases.
The paper's findings had a profound impact on the field of immunology and paved the way for the development of vaccines and other immunotherapies.
