title: [Comparative study of six methods for lymphocyte isolation from several mammalian sources and determination of their carbohydrate composition (author's transl)].
abstract: The present paper deals with a comparative study on six methods for isolation of peripheral blood lymphocytes from various mammalian sources: Bos taurus L. (adult cow), Equus caballus L. (adult horse), Equus asinus L. (adult and young donkeys) and Sus scropha L. (adult pig). The following systems were used: a) Filtration through sand columns (a modification of Blaszczyszyn's method); b) Sodium metrizoate and "Ficoll 400" c) "Lymphoprep"; d) "Urovison" and dextran T150 (a modification of GILI et al.'s method); e) "Urografin" and dextran T150; f) "Ficoll-Paque". The final preparation of lymphocytes obtained by "Urovison" and dextran T150 (d = 1.081) procedure was free from platelets and erythrocytes; lymphocytes degree of purity was found to be 98%. The sialic acids, hexoses and hexosamines contents were determined.
