[Anti-T in newborn infants].
IgM (Immunoglobin M) antibodies to the antigen T (Thomsen-Friedenreich antigen, transformation antigen) were detected by normal agglutination technique in the serum of 7 out of 73 newborn children. Neither the mother's anti-T titre, nor the quantity of IgM and IgG (Immunoglobulin G) in the sera of mother and child was correlated with the anti-T in the newborn's serum. The significance of the newborn's anti-T for the serological diagnosis of a polyagglutinability caused by bacterial infection is discussed.
