Abstract

50 cases of leprosy belonging to various subgroups i.e. 10 tuberculoid, 25 lepromatous leprosy, 10 lepra reaction, 5 dimorphic leprosy, and 25 cases or normal individuals were subjected to agar gel electrophoresis. The slides were scanned by densitometry. It showed profound departure from normal in various fractions of electrophoretic patterns. All of them showed rise of gamma globulin. Albumin was markedly decreased in lepromotous leprosy and lepra reaction. In dimorphic leprosy Alfa-1 was decreased. Qualitative immuno electrophoresis was done by using antihuman serum raised in the laboratory, by immunising rabbits. It revealed changes in IgM and IgG arcs. Results are discussed and tried to explain on immunological derangement.
