Abstract
IN spite of a rapidly mounting literature on the problem of specific antigens in human neoplasms, there have been few attempts to separate these antigens in amounts permitting biochemical and immunological analyses of the same. Such analyses not only would shed light on carcinogenic mechanisms, including possibly the serological back-tracking of eventual biological agents, but would make possible a much-desired immunological classification of tumours. Work from this laboratory has been concentrated on such efforts.
