Umbilical cord serum and adult serum antibodies reactive with heat-stable somatic antigens of Gram-negative bacteria (Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Escherichia coli, and Salmonella typhosa) were assayed by using an indirect fluorescent antibody test. Reactive IgG, IgM, and IgA antibodies were identified by using fluoresceinconjugated antisera specific for these immunoglobulin classes.IgG antibody titers in cord serum approximated those found in the corresponding maternal sera. IgM and IgA antibodies were present in adult sera but were not demonstrable or were present only in small amounts in cord sera. The presence of IgG and IgM antibodies reactive with Gram-negative bacteria was confirmed by the testing of purified 7S and 19S fractions. In addition, both IgG and IgM reactivities were inhibited by the prior incubation of serum with purified specific lipopolysaccharide preparations. The ubiquity and magnitude of these natural IgG antibodies in the sera of both adults and neonates have apparently eluded detection in previous studies. The use of bactericidal and agglutination tests, which are apparently more sensitive to the presence of IgM than to IgG antibodies, may account for the failure of previous studies to detect adult and cord IgG antibodies reactive with somatic antigens of Gram-negative bacteria. The presence of these IgG antibodies may be correlated with the resistance to infection demonstrated by most newborns as they are challenged by the septic extrauterine environment.
