Abstract

In order to evaluate the distribution of the immunoglobulins and complement in the normal conjunctiva, the limbal conjunctiva was incubated with fluorescein-conjugated antisera to IgG, IgM, IgA, C3, C1 and fibrin. The predominant distribution of IgG, IgM, IgA, and C3 within the stroma of the conjunctiva was shown with the presence of IgA within the conjunctival epithelium.
