Abstract

With the aid of insolubilized immunoadsorbents made with glycoproteins, extracted from cow red blood cells (RBC), and with guinea-pig kidney tissue, heterophile antibody populations of the Paul--Bunnell type and the Forssman type were eluted from infectious mononucleosis sera. Two Paul--Bunnell-type antibody populations were separated on the basis of their affinity for cow RBC antigens. The lymphocytotoxic antibodies in the infectious mononucleosis sera were eluted among the low-affinity Paul--Bunnell antibodies.
