Abstract
Short ragweed leaves‐stems, roots, and seeds were examined for the presence of the most potent pollen allergen, antigen E. Soluble proteins were precipitated by ammonium sulfate and partially purified by a combination of dialysis and anion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. Immunodiffusion, disk electrophoresis, and skin testing of short ragweed pollen‐sensitive individuals indicated that antigen E was present in leaves‐stems portion of this plant as well as the pollen.
