Abstract
The interstrain differences in relative affinity of mouse anti-HSA antibody previously shown by studies at equilibrium are also observed when rates of association and dissociation and avidity indices are measured. Marked differences are demonstrated in the binding characteristics of high and low relative affinity antibody to both protein and hapten antigens. These results are explained on the basis of heterogeneity of antibody-binding affinity.
