THE INFLUENCE OF THE MOLECULAR WEIGHT ANTIGEN ON THE PROPORTION OF ANTIBODY TO ANTIGEN IN PRECIPITATES

Abstract
The assumption that, at the equivalence point in specific precipitin reactions, the antigen molecule is completely covered with a single layer of antibody-globulin molecules has been shown to account fairly well for the antibody-antigen ratios of some representative native single proteins, and the pneumococcus S III hapten.
