Preparation of antiserum for quantitative determination of X and Y degradation products of fibrin and fibrinogen

摘要

An antiserum for the quantitative determination of X and Y degradation products of fibrin and fibrinogen is produced by administering the purified degradation products to an experimental animal thereby to immunize said animal, drawing serum from said animal, contacting said serum with a plasma and separating the resultant precipitate, thereby to leave a supernatant liquid which constitutes said antiserum. The plasma may be a heparin, citrate, oxalate, ethylenediaminetetracetate or glutaraldehyde-treated plasma and as many as 12 or 15 precipitations may be made with the animal antiserum. The antiserum may be fractionated at any stage by adsorption on Sephadex modified dextran.
