title: Studies on stimulation and properties of antiglobulin antibodies. I. Influence of heatig at 56 degrees C and 60 degrees C on antigenicity.
abstract: The autoimmunogenic properties of whole rabbit serum heated at 56 degrees C and 60 degrees C were studied in rabbits. Autologous rabbit serum heated 20 min at 60 degrees C was immunogenic. The state of induced immunity manifested itself by the appearance of antibodies to antigens of heterologous sera: human, goat and guinea pig. No antibodies for autologous sera were found, including autologous sera heated 20 min at 60 degrees C. The antibodies for heterologous sera directed against gamma-globulins were detected by the passive hemagglutination test and by precipitation in agar gel.
