Description

Song and Levitt (1975) have commented that Braeman and Moore (1974) snowed a greater degree of suppression by radiation of the phytohaemagglutinin (PHA) stimulation of human lymphocytes than is found by other authors. Thus, they had found no effect from a dose of 1,000 rads to rat lymphocytes, whereas Braeman and Moore had reported a transformation index reduced to 25 per cent of normal after 800 rads to human lymphocytes when using a morphological index of transformation.
