Abstract

SUMMARYNormal untreated chickens, between one week and about four months of age, have a coating of globulins on their red cells detectable by the antiglobulin reaction.Indirect Coombs tests have shown that the serum of fowls older than two weeks contains the factor responsible for this coating.The specificity of the reaction has been discussed, and evidence presented that only a small fraction of serum globulins are responsible.Australian Journal of Experimental Biology and Medical Science (1962) 40, 105–110; doi:10.1038/icb.1962.13
