Results of agglutination test after absorption of a 71 by various sponge cell suspensions. The reciprocal of the dilution (TITRE axis) and concentration of sponge cell suspension (CELL COUNT axis) causing an agglutination reaction to occur are shown. Specimen TA is Verongia fistularis, 67 nd 77 are V. longissima. and 71 and 75 are the same strain (type 3) of V. longissima. B. Results of agglutination test after absorption of a 12 by various sponge cell suspensions. The reciprocal of the dilution (TITRE axis) and concentration of sponge cell suspension (CELL COUNT axis) causing an agglutination reaction to occur are shown. Specimen 77 is V. longissima, and 2 and 12 are the same strain (type 2) of V.
