    Abstract:
    The heterophile antibody levels in sera from patients with Kawasaki disease (49 sera from 39 cases) were measured by sheep erythrocytes (SRBC) agglutination and radioimmunoassay in microplates coated with Hanganutziu-Deicher (H-D) antigen-active glycosphingolipid, equine hematoside. The antibody levels were low in the first week of illness, increased rapidly in the 2nd week, and thereafter gradually decreased. The SRBC agglutination titers and H-D antibody titers of sera from patients with Kawasaki disease from week 2 to 8 of illness were significantly higher than those of healthy children (44 sera) and normal cord blood (13 sera).
