title: The action of seed and other reagents on HEMPAS erythrocytes.
abstract: Erythrocytes of a patient with hereditary erythroblastic multinuclearity with a positive acidified serum test (HEMPAS) were tested with many seed extracts and various other reagents. Serological evidence of membrane abnormality was confirmed. Various anti-H reagents reacted relatively poorly with HEMPAS cells. HEMPAS cells have both enhanced i and depressed H antigens. A brief note on a 'new' anti-H lectin (Cytisus glabrescens) is provided.
