Clifford Antigen testing

Here is Dr. JanDrew's nonsensical list for the putative antigens against
which Clifford et al. are applying antibodies. This is what Dr. JanDrew
calls  "composite compatibility testing." Fortunately, I know something
about this technology. In a previous life, I used previously prepared
anti-goat and anti-pig serum against various human apolipoproteins found in
clinical samples of serum (this was around 1,000-2,000 years ago).

Why? We were evaluating genetic differences between various human
populations. DNA codes for proteins. DNA --> mRNA --> protein.
Transcription, translation, post-translational modification, etc.

The apolipoproteins are manufactured inside everyone's liver, in various
proportions and in various quantities. The apolipoprotein (this is a
protein) combines with phospholipids, fats, etc., as transport particles.
This is the mechanism for cholesterol transport throught the body. These
form the lipoproteins which we have come to know and love. These are LDL,
HDL, etc. The LDL is the baddie in this situation. This is "low-density
lipoprotein" while HDL is the goodie. That's high density lipoprotein. Etc.
etc. etc. apo-A, apo-B, various fractions, etc.

I got this information from their website. Just to show folks what is really
going on here, they had this little list inside a 144K PDF file, just to
keep people from copying it. It is exactly one page! The entire PDF
translates into one page!

You supply Clifford with 3 mLs of serum and they run the antibody tests, for
a nice fat fee, of course.

So what did I do to make this available at sci.med.dentistry? I copied the
PDF and then I opened same in Adobe Acrobat Exchange. There I can edit,
modify, or paste into Notepad.

So JanDrew, which reactive groups did you score high on and what organic
compounds were responsible for this?

Cheers,
