As revealed in this study, the injection of adsorbed DT-m toxoid with reduced antigen content at the period of remission does not induce the relapse of the disease and leads to the production of specific antitoxic antibodies on the protective level. The study has shown that complex antitumor treatment does not essentially affect the formation of specific immune response, though prolonged changes in cell-mediated immunity can be observed.

It is recommended that xenobiotics be administered in different periods of embryogenesis: from day 1 to day 7, from day 7 to day 15 and from day 1 to day 20. It has been established that at cross mating the most pronounced alterations arose in the progeny of experimental males.
