Abstract:
:A new and simple method for quantitation of IgM of low molecular weight in sera by radial immunodiffusion in 7% agar gel is described. The test is easy to perform and permits exact determination of low molecular weight IgM concentration down to very small quantities (1 mg%). Results obtained with the method described agree with previously used assay procedures and offer the advantage of convenience and rapidity.
