Group-specific differentiation of human feces with special regard for the presence of group AB
Schiff and Akun found group-specific agglutinins in the contents of the upper intestine. Vitebskiy and Sato pointed out the presence of these substances in meconium and feces of infants during the first month of their life. In adults, these group-specific features are found in the contents of the small intestines, but are absent in the feces: here they are present only in intestinal disorders. Schiff believes that group agglutinins in adults are absent in feces as a result of the action of a special "group enzyme", which is found in the lower parts of the intestine.
