Abstract
Marmoset serum or serum of other species of animal may react with sodium dodecyl sulfate and forms nonspecific precipitin lines in agar diffusion. The protein detergent complexes are not readily dialyzable. Therefore precipitin lines derived from studies that use sodium dodecyl sulfate-treated antigens in agar diffusion must be interpreted with caution.
