Preparation and properties of antisera to glycolipid of guinea pig erythrocyte membrane.
Antibodies against a glycolipid of guinea pig erythrocyte membranes were prepared in rabbits by immunization with guinea pig erythrocyte stroma or the purified glycolipid, gangliotriaosylceramide. The antibodies agglutinated guinea pig erythrocytes. The specificity of antibodies could be revealed by several immunochemical methods, including inhibition of hemagglutination, immunodiffusion, agglutination of liposomes, and complement fixation. The antibodies were specific for gangliotriaosylceramide.
