Abstract
A comparative study on the enhancement of humoral immune response in mice after oral treatment with levamisole or a lyophilized bacterial lysate (Broncho-Vaxom) is presented. The latter proves to be more effective at therapeutic doses than levamisole on the induction of immunoglobulin formation and particularly that of IgA in secretions.
