Production of an Agglutinating Auto-Antibody (Panagglutinin) Active upon Tanned Erythrocytes in the Rabbit

Abstract

P. LEVINE et al. 1 demonstrated the positive immune response of the rabbit to the injection of tanned hetero- or iso-erythrocytes coated with P—reactive material obtained from hydatiform cysts. This response is rapid and vigorous, contrasting with the slow or negative result when the same material was injected by other routes, even with the use of adjuvants.
