Abstract
Immunofluorescence tests indicate that alloantibodies specific for mouse histocompatibility antigens H-1a, H-3a, and H-13a have been produced, using four different immunizations. Furthermore, an immunization employing donors and recipients which were H-2k at the MHC produced stronger anti-H-3a and anti-H-13a than did immunizations where donors and recipients were H-2b at the MHC.
