Popis: | Fractionation of Toxoplasma gondii suggested that both dye-test and complement-fixing antigenicity were related to protein material obtained from sonically fragmented cells by precipitation with 30% saturated ammonium sulfate at pH 7.O. This protein material was capable of neutralizing dye-test antibodies, acting as a complement-fixing antigen, and producing both complement-fixing and dye-test antibodies in guinea pigs. Carbohydrate from sonically fragmented toxoplasmas showed no antigenic activity in relation to the complement fixation or dye tests. |
