STUDIES ON REACTIONS RELATING TO CARBOHYDRATES AND POLYSACCHARIDES : LXIV. ANTIGENICITY OF DEXTRAN PRODUCED BY LEUCONOSTOC MESENTEROIDES.
Anti-Leuconostoc mesenteroides sera have been produced in rabbits. These antisera gave precipitin reactions with relatively high dilutions of the homologous polysaccharide, dextran, having a maximum nitrogen content of 0.08 per cent. It can therefore be concluded that this dextran is a haptene.
