Abstract
PREPARATIONS consisting of the electrophoretically slowest migrating part of the 7S γ-globulin were prepared by means of preparative zone electrophoresis. Individual preparations were obtained from normal serum and from the serum of an Rh-immunized individual. Preparations from pooled plasma were obtained from commercially available Cohn fractionated γ-globulin (supplied by AB KABI, Stockholm). All preparations showed Gm(a+) character when tested in a serum-grouping system according to Grubb1,2. On immunoelectrophoresis with different rabbit antisera against human whole serum (supplied by Behringwerke, W. Germany) the γ-globulin preparations showed the character of 7S γ-globulin. No β2A or β2M was present.
