Abstract

IgA was found to be the predominant immunoglobulin in canine milk, saliva, tears, hepatic bile and intestinal fluid. The molecular size of canine serum IgA was larger than that of human serum IgA, whereas the molecular size of canine exocrine IgA was similar to or slightly larger than that of 11 S human milk IgA. Both exocrine and serum IgA from the dog were readily and completely reduced to subunits of the size of human IgG by treatment with 0·1 M mercaptoethanol.
