Figure 1. Levels of IgM in newborn and adult blood samples.

Figure 1

Analysis of IgM levels in 31 cord blood samples compared to 43 healthy adults. Panels depict results from ELISA immunoassays for; Total IgM (A) or IgM that recognize: phosphorylcholine (PC) (B); malondialdehyde (MDA) protein adducts (C); pneumococcal cell wall polysaccharide, CWPS (D). Panels (E)–(G) illustrate the ratios of IgM anti-PC/total IgM, IgM anti-MDA/total IgM and IgM anti-CWPS/total IgM. Binding assays were performed by ELISA. P-values were derived from two-sided un-paired t test with Welch’s correction.
