Abstract
WE have investigated the stage in erythroblast maturation at which erythrocyte membrane antigens first appear, using an antiserum which lysed rabbit erythrocytes. Mature acidophilic erythroblasts were lysed with a lower concentration of antiserum (complement in excess) than were the less mature basophilic cells.
