title: The effect of cell numbers on Schwann cell radioimmunoassay for serum cytotoxicity.
abstract: Immune cytotoxic effects on cultured Schwann cells can be monitored by a 51Cr release cytotoxicity assay. This paper presents the results of experiments using different cell numbers in the assay and a revision of the method for calculating the % specific release of 51Cr. The results give a more reliable and quantitative method for distinguishing between different sera.
