title: [The autoradiographic definition of the proliferation of lymphoblasts in tonsils of children (author's transl)].
abstract: The H3-thymidin incorporation index of lymphoblasts in tonsils of 61 children, aged 3-14 years, has been measured posttonsillectomy. The lowest index was found in focal tonsillitis with a maximum in simple hyperplasia. The definition of H3-thymidin incorporation is a good index for cellular immunological activity in tonsils just prior to tonsillectomy.
