Abstract
ANTIBODY activity has been reported to be associated with several Waldenström macroglobulins and a few myeloma proteins. Convincing quantitative data have been presented both for a Waldenström macroglobulin with anti-human IgG antibody activity1 and for an IgG myeloma protein with antidinitrophenyl activity2.
