The phenomenon of antigen-induced aggregation of human buffy coat leucocytes correlates well with skin testing using purified protein derivative of tuberculin as the antigen and in this system appears to be a simple, sensitive test of cell-mediated immunity. The same phenomenon may, however, be used as an indicator of humoral immunity. In addition antigen-induced buffy coat leucocyte aggregation is suppressed by serum from patients with Hodgkin's disease and sarcoidosis. The possible uses and also the limitations of this test are discussed.
人血沉棕黄层白细胞抗原诱导聚集现象与以结核菌素纯蛋白衍生物为抗原的皮肤试验密切相关，在该系统中似乎是一种简单、灵敏的细胞介导免疫检测方法。然而，同样的现象也可作为体液免疫的指标。此外，霍奇金病和结节病患者的血清可抑制抗原诱导的血沉棕黄层白细胞聚集。本文讨论了该检测方法的可能用途及局限性。
