title: MicroELISA detection of thymosin alpha 1 released in thymic organ cultures.
abstract: Using a polyclonal specific rabbit anti-thymosin alpha 1 a highly sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has been developed to measure thymosin alpha 1. Production of thymosin alpha 1 was detected in both thymic organ cultures and in mouse serum. The method is rapid (5 h), reproducible and easy to perform.
