Leukocyte antibodies were fractionated by sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation, and it was found that antibodies are present in the IgG immunoglobulins in the majority of the cases. However, it was possible to demonstrate antibody activity in the IgM as well as the IgG fraction of sera originating from immunized volunteers, pregnant women, and patients with transfusion reactions caused by leukocyte antibodies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
