## Abstract Urine samples collected from patients with colon carcinoma and from normal donors were tested for antigenic activity by the microcomplement fixation assay. When autologous serum was used as the antibody source, 65.4% (17/26) of the urine samples from patients with colon carcinoma were p
Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and glioma-associated antigens (GAA) defined by monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were demonstrated simultaneously in human astrocytoma tissue. GFAP was stained by PAP-method, GAA were visualized by avidin-biotin-technique using alcaline phosphatase. In primary and
