Abstract
Immunoglobulin determinants have been demonstrated on the surface membrane of lymphocytes in man and other species1. Immunoglobulin on individual human lymphocytes is restricted to a single class, subclass and allotype2. Here we report the occurrence of IgD on a large percentage of the lymphocytes of human umbilical cord blood.
