Abstract
A review is presented of the literature on the chemical structure of cardiolipin and the serological activity of similar synthetic compounds. Results obtained in the Kolmer complement-fixation test and Venereal Disease Research Laboratory microflocculation test suggest that synthetic diphosphatidylglycerol may be used as a substitute for natural cardiolipin.This publication has 26 references indexed in Scilit:
