Abstract
Chinchillas immunized parenterally with a type b Haemophilus influenza e (Hib) conjugate vaccine (ProHIBiT) intended as a marker for serum tr ansudation into the middle ear were shown to have Hib-specific antibod y in middle ear lavage fluids after induction of an upper respiratory tract infection with adenovirus serotype 1 but not before, despite evi dence of seroconversion.
