Summary
To ascertain the character of changes in antigenic properties of developing Belone belone euxini Gün the author obtained immune sera against tissues of the muscle, heart, ovary and lens of adult fish, as well as sera against the embryo at the stage of the caudad bud development. Experiments involved the use of the ring precipitation reaction between the sera and the extracts from the eggs at their various developmental periods.
In experiments with antiembryonic sera and absorbed extracts from the ovary it was established that a change of the antigenic properties of the roe occurred beginning from gastrulation. These changes enhance with its further development. In experiments with sera against individual tissues antigens of the muscles, heart and lens were revealed, starting from the stage of the caudad bud development. During embryogenesis the amount of antigens in individual tissues was seen to increase.
