Abstract
Variations in the ability of homogeneous antibodies to absorb group a allotype antisera suggest that these VH region allotypes comprise a spectrum of specificities. While no homogeneous antibody tested would completely absorb antisera to the group a specificities, the total IgG preparations from individual rabbits was capable of doing so, including preimmune IgG from the rabbits that produced the homogeneous antibodies.Keywords
