ABSTRACT
Murine monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) and immune rabbit serum were raised against the rough mutant of Salmonella minnesota strain R595. These antibodies were tested for their ability to inhibit LPS-induced B-cell mitogenicity and neutralise LPS toxicity in chick embryos. Immune rabbit serum inhibited both mitogenicity and LPS lethality. None of the MAbs or a cocktail of antibodies were able to neutralise LPS lethality in chick embryos. However, they were able to inhibit mitogenicity by varying degrees.
