Relation between total serum IgE levels and IgE antibody production in rats
International Archives of Allergy and Applied Immunology
|January 1, 1979
Abstract:
Five different rat strains were immunized with 100 microgram ovalbumin and 1 mg Al (OH)3. A good correlation was found between the total serum IgE level of a rat strain before immunization and the IgE antibody production. Good IgE antibody-producing strains had high total serum IgE levels and vice versa. A discordance between the evolution of the total serum IgE level after immunization and the changes in IgE antibody level was found in all strains.
