Interaction of erythrocytes with human serum proteins. I. Analysis of the effect of pH and ionic strength of the medium.
The effect of ionic parameters of the medium (pH and ionic strength) on the processes of interaction of tannin-treated erythrocytes and the protein fractions of human serum (macroglobulins, microbulins and albumin) was studied in factorial experiments. Complex effect of these parametres on the processes under investigation and optimum conditions of erythrocyte sensitization were established. Subsequent fixation of antibodies by the erythrocyte diagnostic and their agglutinating activity are manifested in different mannera depending on the conditions of preceding sensitization. Important peculairities were discovered in the mechanism of interaction between the erythrocytes and various serum proteins. The obtained results should be taken into account in the production of erythrocyte antigen and antibody diagnosticums.
