Abstract: The content of antibodies to B. pertussis disintegrated cells, protein fraction and lipopolysaccharide in the blood of patients and convalescents has been studied. The study has revealed that in the blood sera of whooping cough patients the titers of antibodies to lipopolysaccharide considerably exceed the titers of antibodies to other antigenic fractions. The titers of IgM to lipopolysaccharide have been shown to exceed the titers of IgM to other fractions 1.5-2 times.
