MERLIN LINARES, Julio César; VILLAESCUSA BLANCO, Rinaldo  and  ARCE HERNANDEZ, Ada Amalia. Purification of natural anti-band 3 IgG antibodies. Rev Cubana Hematol Inmunol Hemoter [online]. 2007, vol.23, n.1, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-2996.

Natural anti-band 3 IgG antibodies were purified by affinity chromatography with an acceptable level of purity, rapidity and efficiency, starting from a mixture of human immunoglobulins of paren teral use. The attainment of these natural anti-band 3 antibodies will allow further studies on their possible participation and therapuetic potential in the phenomenon of drepanocytosis vasoocclusion
