ASSESSMENT OF CELLULAR IMMUNITY IN GUINEA PIGS FOLLOWING THE TRANSFER FACTOR AND SENSITIZED SPLEEN CELL TRANSFER USING ERYTHROCYTESLYMPHOCYTES ROSETTE TEST

Abstract

In an assessment of cellular immunity in Guinea pigs following transfer factor andsensitized spleen cell transfer using the erythrocytes: lyphocytes rosette test (E-rosettetest).. The results revealed the following: p _There is increase in the mean number of E-rosette forming active and total Tlymphocytes in the sensitized transfer factor and sensitized spleen cell recipient groupscomparable to control groups received normal spleen cell extract and normal spleen cells.These findings indicate that E-rosette "forming cells are of cellular immunologicalsinificance. .
