Studies on the rosette inhibition assay. Results using monkey lymphocytes

Results obtained using a modified rosette inhibition assay with human and monkey lymphocytes were compared. The monkey lymphocytes tended to yield lower titers against a series of antithymocyte globulin preparations. Titers or relative rosette inhibition activities obtained with monkey lymphocytes correlated more poorly with skin graft prolongation in monkeys than assays using human lymphocytes in previous studies.
