[Mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC) as a histocompatibility test for allogen grafts. Part II. technique, significance and applications (author's transl)].

This study introduces mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC) as a clinical method for prognostic assessment in allogen grafts. The principle and technical data are discussed. The technical variance and biological reproducibility of the MLC was tested by means of the recommendations of the Sixth International Histocompatibility Workshop 1975. The individual data show fluctuation, but the relative values and the order of rank are important. The order of rank is reproducible.
