Study of antigenic varieties of group A red cells, platelets and lymphocytes using liquid phase electrophoresis

The authors attempt to study the presence of subgroups of the phenotype A on lymphocytes and platelets with the help of liquid phase electrophoresis. The results show that anti-A of B serum reduces the electrophoretic mobility of red cells, platelets and lymphocytes of group A but leaves unchanged the mobility of group O or B cells. The same variations are observed in red cell lymphocytes and platelets. The authors suppose that the distribution of antigenic sites is identical in these elements.
