Antigen-specific immunoglobulin production in animals treated with SART. The four indicated groups were established: CTR (PBS-treated mice), SART (mice treated daily with an oral dose of SART), TF (mice immunized with TNP-Ficoll), and TF + SART (mice immunized with TNP-Ficoll and treated daily with SART). Oral treatment with SART was onset 10 days before immunization. Serum was obtained from individual mice at days 7, 14, and 21 after immunization, as indicated in the figure. Anti-TNP-Ficoll serum titers were determined by ELISA. (a) show data on IgM antibodies and (b) the one on IgG levels. Data indicate mean values ± SD of 6 animals per group. Data are representative of two independent experiments. when compared to the TF group.
