Abstract

Infected cerebrospinal fluid from rabbits with Escherichia coli meningitis failed to opsonize the infecting organism. Cerebrospinal fluid from rabbits with Staphylococcus aureus meningitis did opsinize E. coli.

Antibody-Dependent Cell Cytotoxicity

Antibody-dependent cellular toxicity refers to the lysis of a target cell by a non-sensitized effector cell of the immune system as a result of antibodies binding to the target cell membrane and engaging the Fc receptors on the immune effector cells.
