title: Antibodies to bacterial L-asparaginases.
abstract: Complement fixation has been shown to occur when asparaginase reacts with specific antibody. This is as a result of an antigenic determinant common to the four bacterial asparaginases. Patients on asparaginase therapy may produce antibodies and these could be demonstrated by complement fixation.
