An immunization schedule different from the one previously used for the production of anti‐Lp(a) serum is described. Rabbits were given partially purified Lp(a) lipoprotein prepared from relatively large amounts of Lp(a+) serum, in the foot pads and intramuscularly. The antisera obtained after absorption were specific and of high titres. By repeated immunizations considerable quantities of antisera were obtained.
