Lipuscmes as Capriers for Production of Sugar Specific Prepartion of Antibodies Operation of Antigalitosyl Aftisfrum

Abstract
Negatively charged multilamellar liposomes, covalently coupled with p-aminophenylated derivative of D-galactose, have been used to raise galactose specific antibodies in rabbits. The specificity of the antiserum has been characterized hy immunociffusion, quantitative precipitation and hapten inhibition studies. In addition to its specificity against the sugar moiety the antibouy population also recognizes the aromatic aglycone nortion of the introduced hapten. This effers a new method of raising sugar specific antibodies using liposomes as imnunological carriers.
