Abstract
IV. Conclusions
A method for the isolation of rat 7S gamma globulin based on multiple adsorptions with DEAE-Sephadex A-50 was presented. The separation of rat 7S globulin requires a procedure modified from the one used for humans in terms of the buffer pH, and the number of adsorptions. Ultracentrifugal analysis indicates the resulting fraction is a single component. In addition, immunoelectrophoresis of the fraction when tested against antirat serum confirms the homogeneity of this 7S fraction. A monospecific antiserum to rat 7S gamma globulin was produced. This antiserum is free of reaction with all other serum components when subjected to immunoelectrophoresis against normal rat serum.
