Abstract
A lipid present in meconium and capable of inhibiting the agglutination of human M and N erythrocytes by rabbit anti-M and anti-N antibodies has been isolated and identified as cholesteryl sulfate. The reaction of human anti-A and anti-B antisera with the respective human red blood cells is not impaired by cholesteryl sulfate. Cholesteryl hemisuccinate has been found to be an hemagglutination inhibitor qualitatively similar to but less active than cholesteryl sulfate.
