The diagnosis of patients were done by immunofixation technique.The positive titer of immunoglobulins showed 2(2.6%) IgM ,6(7.6%) IgA and 33(43.4%) IgG, while 6(7.8%) was negative titer. The light chains Kappa 22(28.9%),Lambda 20(26.3%), while 5(6.6%) negative, it was noticeable changes among patients and healthy group.
