    Abstract:
    Cold insoluble circulating immune complexes of BSA and anti-BSA antibody are formed in vivo while immune catabolism of antigen is occurring. The effects of temperature, rate of precipitation and redissolvability of the cold insoluble antigen were studied in this model. Circulating BSA is soluble at 37 degrees, but may precipitate when the temperature is reduced. The solubility of antigen decreases at 24 degrees and below. Complete precipitation occurs in 5-7 days. The antigen in the cryoprecipitate is difficult to redissolve unless low pH citrate or glycine buffers are used.
