  • Increased Antibody Production

  • Low evidence
  • Animal Study

  coimmunization with SSS-III plus 2 or 20 micrograms of Pseudomonas aeruginosa lipopolysaccharide (LPS) resulted in an anti-SSS-III response that was equal to or greater than that of vitamin A-sufficient rats immunized only with SSS-III.
