The enhancement of immunoprecipitation using antisera from early stages of immunization

PMCID: PMC1455804  PMID: 4994117

Abstract

The enhancing effect of dextran on the precipitability of various antigens with immune sera obtained from different stages of immunization was studied. The greatest effect was observed with antisera from early stages of immunization which in many cases gave no or weak immunoprecipitates in the absence of water soluble non-ionic polymer dextran, using the conventional double diffusion technique.
