To determine the concentration of Lactoperoxidase (LPO), an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay(ELISA) was developed. Anti-LPO egg yolk immunoglobulin(IgY) was transferred to egg yolk by immunizing of Brown hens with LPO. The titer of purified anti-LPO IgY was 1: 520,000. The immunological response of anti- LPO IgY with ${\alpha}$-lactalbumin, ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin, casein and lysozyme were evaluated, resulting that the anti-LPO IgY found to be a specific antibody toward LPO and no cross-reaction was observed against ${\alpha}$-lactalbumin, ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin, casein, and lysozyme in double immunodiffusion test and ELISA test. In indirect ELISA method, coating concentration of LPO and dilution rate of anti-LPO IgY was 0.25$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL and 1:8,000 respectively. Sensitivity in the standard curve of LPO was ranged from 0.01 to 1$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL using anti-LPO IgY.

This study was carried out for production of neutral antibody to bee venom $(anti-phospholipase\;A_2IgY)$. Hen layings were injected repeatedly with bee venom and phospholipase $A_2$ with Freund's adjuvant. Specific antibody in egg yolk from immunized hen laying was separated, and purified, also immunological characteristics of anti phospholipase $A_2\;IgY$ was invested. The results were summarized as follows: 1. Phospholipase $A_2$ was showed single band at molecular weight 17,000 in SDS-PAGE and bee venom was showed two band at molecular weight 17,000 and under molecular weight 6,500 in SDS-PAGE. 2. During 70 days after hen immunized with bee venom and phospholipase $A_2$, antibodies(anti-bee venom IgY) to bee venom were showed poor ELISA value in egg yolk, but antibodies$(anti-Phospholipase\;A_2IgY)$ to phospholipase $A_2$ in egg yolk were increased ELISA value from 8 days or 15 days and found maximum ELISA value at 42 days. Also after booster at 49 days, ELISA value of anti Phospholipase $A_2\;IgY$ in egg yolk was supported at optical density(O.D) 1.0 level, continuously. 3. Titer of phospholipase $A_2\;IgY$ was showed 1: 32,000. 4. In double immunodiffusion test to phospholipase $A_2$ after double dilution of anti-phospholipase $A_2\;IgY$, only precipitation line was made in 1:1 dilution well of anti-Phospholipase $A_2\;IgY$. But In immunodiffusion test to anti-phospholipase $A_2\;IgY$ after double dilution of phospholipase $A_2$, Precipitation line to 250ul/ml well of phospholipase $A_2$ was showed. In double immunodiffusion test to bee venom(1mg/ml) after double dilution anti-phospholipase $A_2\;IgY$, all well without 1:32 dilution well were showed strong precipitation line. 5. In dot bloting test to anti-phospholipase $A_2\;IgY$ after diluting bee venom(0.5mg/ml), dot bloting color was showed clearly to $1/100(5{\mu}g/ml)$ in bee venom.

Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and immunodiffusion method were used for the species differentiation of yeasts, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida utils, Candida tropicalis, and Kleuyveromyces fragilis. Comparing the electrophoretic patterns of soluble and membrane proteins, Saccharomyces cereνisiae was similar to Candida utilis but was different from Candida tropicalis and Kleuyveromyces fragilis. In immunochemical properties of soluble proteins, Saccharomyces cerevisiae was almost identical with Candido utilis. However, Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Candida utilis was quite different from Candida tropicalis and Kleuyveromyces fragilis in their immunoreactivities. In immunochemical properties of membrane proteins, almost the same results were obtained irrespective of four yeast species. By using SDS-PAGE and immunodiffusion methods, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida utilis were difficult to differentiate but both species were easily differentiated from Candida tropicalis and Kleuyveromyces fragilis.

These experiments were carried out to isolate SIgA from human and bovine milk. The immunochemical properties of SIgA from human and bovine milk were examined by Gel filtration, DEAE and SDS-PAGE. Double Immunodiffusion, and Immunoelectrophoresis. The results obtained are as follows: 1. Human SIgA was purified from colostrum of Korean women by repeated gel filtration on Sephadex G-200 and Sepharose 6B, but bovine SigA was not cleary purified from bovine colostrum of Holstein cows by anion exchange chromatography using DEAE-Sephadex A-50 and gel filtration on Sephadex G-200 and Sepharose 6B. 2. The immunochemical properties of fractions from gel filtration on the Sephadex G-200 and Sepharose 6B column as assessed by Immunoelectrophoresis and double Immunodiffusion to identify the presence of IgM in first peak fraction, and the presence of pure SIgA in second peak fraction. However, Bovine SigA rich fraction from bovine colostrum of Holstein cows contained a large amount of $IgG_1$-dimer in addition to SIgA. 3. The fragments of reduced bovine colostrum SIgA rich fraction were estimated to have molecular weights of secretory component, heavy chain and light chain (75,000-80,000, 50,000-60,000, 25,000-27,000 daltons) by SDS-PAGE, respectively. Those were similar to the molecular weight of reduced SIgA from human milk.

This study was performed in order to identify changes of the plasma membrane proteins in rat submandibular gland tumors induced by 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene [DMBA] and X-irradiation. Two kinds of tumor associated membrane proteins (protein A and B) were isolated with 3 M KCl extraction from rat submandibular gland tumors induced by DMBA and X-irradiation. To identify their antigenicities, immunoelectrophoresis and double immunodiffusion was carried out with various proteins extracted from liver, heart, skin and pancreas of adult rats and from embryonic liver, heart and skin. The rabbit antisera against the protein A did not cross-react with any of the proteins extracted from the above mentioned tissues, suggesting that protein A might be tumor specific antigen. However, the rabbit antisera against protein B was precipitated with proteins extracted from the liver of adult and embryonic rats. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of these two proteins (A and B) showed that protein A was a dimer with molecular weights of 69,000 and 35,000 dalton, whereas protein B was a monomer with molecular weight of 50,000 dalton.

Sheep hemoglobin (SHb) was modified with methoxy-polyethylene glycol (mPEG) to develop a potential blood substitute. mPEG has been used to decrease antigenicity and immunogenicity of foreign proteins. When the mPEG was attached to SHb, the modified hemoglobins showed decreased electrophoretic mobility on SDS-PAGE and decreased free amino groups. When the remaining free amino groups of mPEG modified SHb were determined by TNBS free amino group titration methods. about 34% of total free amino groups were modified with mPEG. This mPEG-SHb conjugate of 34% amino groups modified showed no precipitation by double immunodiffusion with polyclonal antibodies against SHb. This modified hemoglobin still has oxygen transport activity. So this antigenicity decreased hemoglobin may be used in humans as a potential blood substitute.

A review of taxonomic treatments of the amentiferous plant taxa reveals diverse classification. It appears to be necessary to investigate new characteristics and attempt to determine the significance of these characteristics in terms of amentiferous systematics. Serological techniques have been empolyed in a systematic investigation of selected taxa of the Amentiferae: Betulaceae, Fagaceae, Juglandaceae, Myricaceae, and Salicaceae. Data by qualitative analysis of pollen proteins, double immunodiffusion and conventional immunoelectrophoresis, have proved to be valuable in delimitation of taxa tested. When the antisera against Alnus hirsuta, Betula platyphylla var. japonica, Quercus aliena, Q. dentata, Q. glauca were tested; Alnus and Betula have the greatest protein similarity to one another; and next to the rest of betulaceous genera. Relatively strong protein similarity obtained with most representatives of Quercus and Fagus when reacted with antisera against Alnus and Betula is very much in contrast to the weak protein similarity obtained for the genera of Juglandaceae, Myricaceae, particularly of Salicaceae Tested with the same antisera. When Quercus antisera were used for various genera, the weakest protein similarity was obtained with Populus.

One strain of mosquitocidal Bacillus thuringiensis, H9B, was isolated from soil. The biochemical characteristics and flagella antigenicity of the strain H9B is similar to that of B. thuringiensis subsp. darmstadiensis. The delta-endotoxin of the strain H9B coincided with that of B. thuringiensis subsp. darmstadiensis strain 73E10-2 on agarose double immunodiffusion test. The delta-endotoxin of B. thuringiensis subsp. israelensis contains hemolysin fragment (28 kb) on SDS-PAGE when the delta-endotoxin was solubilized in alkali, while that of the strain H9B does not contain 28 kb protein.

The fast-migrating cationic peroxidase isozyme, named RC3, was purified from rice (Oryza sativa cv. Nak-Dong) callus. Purification of the enzyme was accomplished by ammonium sulfate fractionation, CM-cellulose ionexchange chromatography, and Sephacryl S-100 gel filtration. The molecular mass of the enzyme was about 34 KDa as determined by SDS-PACE and 38 KDa by Sephacryl-100 gel filtration. The pI value of the enzyme was 8.9. Antiserum against RC3 was raised in rabbits, and anti RC3 antiserum reacted with RC3 isozyme by Ouchterlony double immunodiffusion. The optimum pHs and Km values of the enzyme for various substrates were determined. Kinetic studies with various substrates showed that RC3 had very low Km value of 0.01 mM for ferulic acid and ascorbic acid. However, the enzyme did not use esculetin as a substrate.
