Abstract:
A brief survey of the ways in which humoral and cellular immune responses deal with bacteria and their products shows that a variety of effector mechanisms is involved. Their efficiency varies, partly in relation to the kind of bacterial attack with which they have to deal. Some bacterial factors though not crudely toxic can interfere with specific host defences.
