The usual sources of antigenic material for investigations on circulating immunoglobulins with anti-lens crystallins specificity are saline extracts of human cataract lenses. This practice has a number of drawbacks, especially the possible antigenic alterations that may have occurred in cataract lenses. The aim of this investigation was to compare the antigenic properties of porcine eye lens crystallins and human crystallins, with regard to the possibility for an alternative source of antigenic material for detection of anti-crystallin antibodies in human sera.
