The cross-reacting antibodies of group O sera: immunological studies and possible explanation of the observed facts

Eluates were prepared from fifteen group O sera using A and B red cells. The sera originated from group O women who had either A or B children. In eight of the chosen sera, anti-A was the immune antibody and in seven, the anti-B. Antibody cross-reacting with both A and B red cells was found in all t...
