| Abstract: | Immunological response (primary and secondary) was induced in a suspension of mouse splenic cells on nutrient media containing embryonic calf serum or serum against the erythrocytes of an animal--the lymphoid cells donor. The in vitro immunological response was accompanied by a specific increase in a number of the hemolysin-forming and rosette-forming cells. The optimal for induction of the immunological response in vitro was a dose of 10(7) erythrocytes per 1 ml of the culture. It was shown experimentally that antierythrocytic serum could be used instead of the embryonic calf serum to induce the immunological response in vitro. An increase in the count of rosette-forming cells and no increase of the hemolysin-forming cell count was observed on the nutrient media without 2-mercaptoethanol. |
