Abstract 1. Mature neutrophilic leukocytes show the highest Co60B12 binding capacity. 2. Less mature granulocytes, "blast" forms and eosinophils have little or no Co60B12 binding capacity. 3. Disintegrated mature leukocytes from chronic myelocytic leukemia and polycythemia vera show higher B12 binding capacity than intact cells. 4. Mature leukocytes from patients with chronic myelocytic leukemia and polycythemia vera show a two-phase B12 curve suggesting specific and nonspecific binding, similar to that observed in human serum. 5. Disintegration products from mature neutrophilic leukocytes probably contribute largely to increased B12 binding capacity of serum in chronic myelocytic leukemia and polycythemia vera.

1. After fractionation of the vitamin B12-binding proteins of ten normal sera the components containing transcobalamin II and R-type binders of vitamin B12 respectively were studied for endogenous vitamin B12 content by two distinct systems of vitamin B12 assay. 2. The measurements of total serum vitamin B12 by either bioassay with Euglena gracilis or a radioisotope dilution assay agreed closely. 3. The native vitamin B12 carried by transcobalamin II was higher as measured by bioassay than by isotope dilution assay. 4. The presence of the transcobalamin II fraction of human serum altered the key reaction between the binding reagent of the isotope dilution assay, so that this assay failed to measure vitamin B12 quantitatively. 5. Probably, the mean fraction of plasma vitamin B12 carried by transcobalamin II is in the range 20–30%.

Over the last two decades, new and more advanced strategies that help in the rapid screening and identification of new ligands for a specific macromolecule have become an important domain.
