[Comparison of the drop and capillary technics of the leukocyte migration inhibition test in the detection of sensitization to candidin].
15 test persons with a positive and 3 with a negative intradermal test of candidin were examined with two modifications of the migration inhibition test. In these cases the agarose droplet test proved to be somewhat more sensitive in comparison to the capillary method. There were no correlations between the size of the cutaneous test reaction and the adequate migration index. The droplet test using culture residues (lymphokin assay) was less evident in comparison to the direct method. The two techniques (droplet test, capillary method) are well suited for the proof of cell-mediated immune reactions to candidin and other comparable antigens, respectively.
