The in vitro culture studies of eosinophils.
Techniques for the in vitro culture of eosinophils from marrow and peripheral blood have been available since the early 1970's. Concepts of hematopoiesis and techniques for in vitro culture are reviewed. Insights into eosinophilpoiesis from the relatively few studies reported are discussed. Areas for future study are outlined.
