Abstract
THE type of antibody activity present in antisera from different species directed towards the same antigen has important implications for the selection of the most effective antibody-producing animal for any given antigen-antibody system. In preparing antisera against mouse histocompatibility antigens, the use of mice of different histocompatibility types as antibody producers has proved very effective in differentiating these antigens1.
