The Effec of Conditiond Media Cultued from the Thymocytes and the Splenocytes on the Regulation of Antibody Isotypes; In Vitro Immunization-III
Dong Soo Kim, Geun Woong Noh, Soon Hwan Oh
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1992;35(3):306-314.   Published online March 15, 1992
We had developed a method of in-vitro immunization to increase antibody titer using several cnditioned media which were developed from mouse splenocyts and thymocytes. Using fetal calf serum, the splenocytes of the mouse were divided into two types; adherent cells and non-adherent cells. We used PHA to stimulate the adherent cells to produce PHA-stimulated adherent cell conditioned medium (ACSM-P). Non-adherent...
