Abstract

A chemotactic factor (leucoegresin) for PMN was extracted from the inflamed skin of rabbits and purified. Agar immunoelectrophoresis and immunodiffusion using goat antiserum against rabbit serum and against rabbit IgG or Fc revealed that rabbit leucoegresin shared at least some antigenic determinants with rabbit IgG. Furthermore, the chemotactic activity of leucoegresin disappeared from the fluid phase when it reacted with goat antibody.
