摘要
1. Natural haemolytic activity in brown shrimp (Penaeus californiensis) haemolymph was detected using mouse erythrocytes as target cells. This activity is unrelated to agglutinating and phenoloxidase activity, but it is another probable component of the shrimp defence system. 2. The haemolytic reaction is time and dose dependent, and a serine-protease is involved. 3. The haemolytic factor is thermolabile and has an apparent molecular weight of 23.5 kDa.
