Abstract
Analysis of IgA deficient [human] sera revealed impaired hemolysis of sensitized sheep erythrocytes when tested by a hemolysis in gel (HIG) assay developed for detection of complement deficiencies. All sera were normal in a test for the alternative pathway. The impaired hemolysis was not related to complement aberrations but was caused by antibodies to rabbit IgM, demonstrated in 14 of 21 IgA deficient sera, by use of HIG technique and by agglutination. The presence of these antibodies was not related to age, sex or disease. One serum was further examined and the antibodies were of IgG class.Keywords
