Abstract
A mucoprotein isolated from human urine and possessing the capacity to react with a number of viruses is electrophoretically homogeneous at pH 6.8 and 8.6. After treatment with influenza virus and elimination of its biological activity, the substance remains homogeneous and its electrophoretic mobility is decreased by approximately 20 per cent.
