Subfractions reactions between

Figure 3. Quantitative precipitin reactions between the mannan subfractions (Batch I) and antisera of three C. albicans strains and S. cerevisiae (A) anti-C. albicans NIH A-207 (A-strain) serum (B) anti-C. albicans NIH B-792 (B-strain) serum (C) anti-C. albicans J-1012 (J-strain) serum (D) anti-S. cerevisiae serum. Mannan subfractions are of (O) A-strain (0) B-strain (A) J-strain (A)...

A similar tendency was also observed in the cross-reaction between the mannan subfractions of strains NIH A-207 and J-1012 and their heterologous antisera. The mannans of strain NIH B-792 showed lower cross-reactivities against antisera of strains NIH A-207 and J-1012,. e., only two subfractions containing larger amounts of phosphate were able to cross-react with these antisera.
