Quantitative studies of specific and nonspecific second antibody uptake by sensitized erythrocytes.
Experiments were conducted using the technique of quantitative hemagglutination with an electronic particle counter to study the specific and nonspecific uptake of blood group antibodies by previously sensitized erythrocytes. Specific attachment of a second antibody was impaired by prior RBC sensitization. It was found possible to quantitate simultaneously the amount of both specific and nonspecific second antibody uptake.
