Abstract:

Measuring the proliferative capability of lymphocytes is important in the evaluation of an individual's immune system. This can be achieved in an assay which cultures lymphocytes with either a mitogen or antigen that can stimulate a proliferative response and then labels the cells with a radioactive marker to allow for measurement of response ( ).
