title: A micromethod for the induction and assay of specific in vitro antibody responses by human lymphocytes.
abstract: Human lymphocytes obtained from peripheral blood or spleen were cultured with influenza virus in a microculture system to produce strain specific antibody which was detected by the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Nanogram amounts of specific antibody could be detected in cultures of 4 x 10(5) cells.
