title: Evidence that electrofusion yield is controlled by biologically relevant membrane factors.
abstract: Rabbit + rabbit and human + human combinations of erythrocyte ghost membranes were fused under the same conditions with an electric pulse. Storage at 4 degrees C of ghost membranes from both rabbit and human erythrocytes showed no change with time but storage of the erythrocytes for various periods before ghost preparation showed consistent storage-dependent changes in fusion yield.
