Abstrakt: Two moieties occurring in crude Naja naja cobra venom were found to possess anticomplement activity. Both materials possessed similar molecular weights and specific activities but dissimilar elution profiles upon ion-exchange chromatography. The anticomplement activities of these materials were maintained upon digestion with neuraminidase, and their elution profiles from cation-exchange chromatography became identical after this treatment. It was concluded that the differences between the two anticomplement materials were due to their different sialic acid contents.
