Abstract

The effect of isolated IgM fractions, with or without rheumatoid factor (RF) activity, on reactions between human albumin and rabbit anti-human albumin, human IgG and rabbit anti-human IgG, and tetanus toxoid and human anti-tetanus toxoid was assessed in the antigen excess zone. RF-active fractions increased and RF-negative IgM fractions decreased the amount of free antigen. The immune complexes that were affected by RF IgM fractions differed in composition from those affected by normal IgM fractions.
