Myeloma precipitin reaction

Percent Inhibition of Glucosyl Compounds for the Myeloma Protein and Precipitin Reaction... [Pg.240]

Kabat (251) was able to show by immunochemical methods that the main component of the serum of case 11 (Table VII) was, in fact, a Bence-Jones protein. Rabbit antiserum to this patient s urinary Bence-Jones protein gave a strong precipitin reaction with a 1 625 dilution of the patient s serum. This reaction appeared to be due entirely to Bence-Jones protein since after absorption of the rabbit antiserum with case 11 myeloma serum no additional precipitin reaction could be obtained with the patient s urine or purified Bence-Jones protein nor did the (absorbed) antiserum react with normal serum protein constituents. Qualitative dilution tests indicated a concentration of Bence-Jones protein in the serum of the same order of magnitude as was obtained for the main abnormal component by other methods. In case 1 (Table VII) Kabat was also able to demonstrate by immunochemical methods that while the main component was not a Bence-Jones protein, 0.15 to 0.2 gram per cent of a Bence-Jones protein nevertheless was present and could be identified and estimated by emplojdng the quantitative precipitin method. This concentration, approximately 1.5% of the total protein content of this serum, obviously could not be detected by salting-out, electrophoretic, or ultracentrifugal methods. [Pg.207]

Quite different results have been obtained when cross-reactions were investigated by inhibition of specific precipitation. In several systems nonspecific IgG inhibited, partially or completely, the precipitation in liquid medium of human IgG myeloma proteins by rabbit anti-D antisera classical precipitin tests were utilized (18,97). [Pg.487]
