Coexistent Tk and VA polyagglutinability.
Serologic investigations of the red blood cells of two patients indicated polyagglutination as the cause of compatibility problems. Lectin studies to classify the variety of polyagglutination demonstrated the simultaneous exposure of two latent membrane receptors, Tk and VA. It is proposed that different bacterial enzymes were responsible.
