Abstract
A simple technique has been developed with which five serum specimens can be chromatographed at one time and concentrated immunoglobulin M fractions can be obtained without using fraction collectors and ultraviolet monitors. When applied to the detection of rubella immunoglobulin M antibody, this technique gave results comparable to the sucrose gradient centrifugation method.
