Abstract
Infectious mononucleosis sera gave positive results in enzymoimmunoassay with glutaraldehyde-treated human erythrocytes. This unexpected reaction appeared to be caused by the interaction of Paul-Bunnell (P-B) antibodies with a partial P-B antigen that apparently appears on human red blood cells in a hidden form and becomes exposed by the treatment with glutaraldehyde.
