Abstract
Saline washings from the yeast-like fungus, Candida albicans, yielded a substance capable of sensitizing red cells and causing their agglutination when mixed with immune rabbit sera. A yeast cell antigen from C. albicans cross reacted in Saccharomyces cerevisiae anti-serum whereas the sensitized red cells did not.Keywords
