Negatively-charged, multilamellar liposomes, covalently coupled with p-aminophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside, elicited the rabbits a nearly equivalent anti-galactosyl immune response in both the presence and the absence of complete Freund's-adjuvant (CFA). The antibody response obtained using liposomes both as the carrier and adjuvant was
