The slide-cultured mycelium of Absidia cylindrospora was stained brightly by either a direct or an indirect immunofluorescence staining method using FITC-conjugated rabbit anti-ACE immunoglobulin. The paraffin-sections of Mucor hiemalis, and Rhizopus nigricans exhibited fluorescence as well as that of A. cylindrospora by the same methods. These facts indicated that immunological cross-reactivity exist among these organisms. An uniformly distribution of the fluorescence was observed on the younger and older hyphae of A. cylindrospora, and the sporangiospores were also stained with the fluorescent conjugate.
