A method for coupling protein antigens to erythrocytes. I. Description of method

L R COLE et al. J Exp Med. .

Abstract

A technique has been described whereby tuberculin PPD is coupled, via tetrazotized benzidne, onto the surfaces of formalinized red blood cells. A stable antigen preparation is thereby obtained, which may be stored at -40 degrees C. The purpose of the present method is to facilitate the study of antibody to tuberculoprotein.
