Effect of chronic radiation (60Co) on neutrophilic migration: a possible index of damage

Creators

Description

The leukocyte migration inhibition test (LMI) has been used successfully to assess cell mediated immunity (CMI) in humans and small laboratory animals. In the canine, however, there is a poor correlation between the LMI and in vivo CMI as assessed by skin tests and lymphocyte stimulation assays. We have modified the granulocyte isolation technique, and we currently are assessing different methods for the evaluation of leukocyte function
