Abstract
WE wish to report the testing of 1,000 consecutive serum samples for the presence of the gamma-globulin factors Gm(l) (ref. 1), Gm(2) (ref. 2), Gm(4) (ref. 3), Gm(10), Gm(11) and Gm(12) (ref. 4). Gm(10) is identical with Gm(13) and Gm(12) is identical with Gm(5) (ref. 5). In addition, 500 consecutive samples were tested for the presence of Inv(l) (ref. 6). Samples which were positive for Inv(1) were then tested for Inv(2) (ref. 2).
