Serum Glycoproteins in Monozygotic and Dizygotic Twins.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1958 Summary and conclusionsThe influence of genetic factors on the levels of total serum glycoprotein hexose, seromucoid hexose, and the bound hexose of electrophoretic fractions were investigated by comparing the differences found between monozygotic twin pairs as contrasted to the differences between dizygotic twin pairs.
