|
All human red cells regardless of type were agglutinated by phosphate buffered saline extract of Korean Phaseolus vulgalis L. (P. vulgalis extract) .
By absorption of the extract with group AB human sera, certain red cells were apparently agglutinated while it was failed to agglutinate other red cells. Since such differences in reactivity were observed also among red cells of group O, it was apparent that the blood factor being detected by the absorbed P vulgalis extracts, therefore, designated as ab. P (+) type (absorbed P vulgalis positive type) of which the red cells gave marked agglutination with the absorbed P . vulgalis extracts and the red cells failed to agglutinate were ab P (?) type (absorbed P.
vulgalis negative type) .
In the experiment on a series of 589 specimens of red blood cells absorbed that the frequency of ab. P (+) type was 10.02% (59) and ab. P (?) type was 89.98% (530), and there were no differences in the distribution of ab. P type between male and female, among ABO blood groups, or healthy and sick persons. |
