PMCID: PMC1407974  PMID: 4538885

Abstract

A micro-immune adherence assay employing direct microscopic observation was used to detect the presence of thymus-derived cell antigenic specificities on guinea-pig lymph node cells, purified peritoneal exudate lymphocytes, and thymocytes using a heterologous burro anti-guinea-pig thymocyte serum. A method is described for the direct determination of thymus-derived cell specificity of anti-lymphocyte sera.
