Immunoglobulin Levels in Serum of Normal Infants and Pre-School Children as Determined by Immunochemical Analysis

Standards for determining serum immunoglobulin (Ig) levels in infants and preschool children are now possible as a result of data compiled and presented in this paper. These can be compared with adult standards used in this hospital and presented in earlier issues of the MEDICAL JOURNAL. The Hospital\u27s laboratory technique is compared with other methods for measuring IgM, IgA and IgG serum levels

Normal Serum Protein Levels in Syrian (Golden) Hamsters: Compared with the Protein Levels in SV 40 Tumor Bearing and SV 40 Immune Hamsters

A study of 149 hamsters indicates that there are periods in life when the animal is immune to tumor induction by a known virus. By studying normal serum protein levels, standards were established for the adult age and for the tumor forming period. The data emphasize the importance of the immunologic status of the host for virus induction of tumors
