Lack of serological homology between chicken alpha-foetoprotein, chicken foetal red blood cell antigen and Marek's disease tumour-associated surface antigen.
In the course of immunofluorescence absorption studies it was found that, besides Marek's disease tumour-associated surface antigen (MATSA), two foetal antigens could be distinguished on MSB-1 line cells, one of which was chicken foetal red blood cell antigen (chFRBC) and another chicken alpha-foetoprotein (chAFP). The experiments suggest a lack of homology between the three antigens.
