Summary
Ribosomes from different tissues and species of animals were tested by several different immunochemical methods. With antisera produced in rabbits by injection of intact ribosomes significant species differences in the antigenic properties of the ribosomes could be demonstrated whereas no tissue conditioned properties in the antigenic determinants were found.
