Immunological Homogeneity of Membrane Proteins from Hereditary Spherocytic, Hereditary Elliptocytic, and Normal Red Cells

Abstract
Summary. Haemagglutination inhibition and immunodiffusion techniques were applied to the study of red‐cell membrane protein obtained from normal human subjects, patients with hereditary spherocytosis, patients with hereditary elliptocytosis, and also from calves and monkeys.These techniques failed to detect differences between the normal and abnormal human red cells but did show differences between the red cells of the human and the two other mammalian species.
