| 摘要 |
The property of phagocyte cells to show chemiluminescence when activated by certain chemical or immunological agents is used for a qualitative and quantitative analysis of such agents in biological fluids. A variety of factors such as opsonizing anti-bodies, complement, inhibitors, membrane-specific anti-bodies, and their antigens, membrane-specific lectins, lymphokines, endotoxins, toxic substances and others can be analyzed in this way. The new method finds application in the biotechnical, clinical, immunological and pharmacological fields, with a special preference for toxicological screening of pharmaceuticals. The phagocyte cells needed for the analysis can be derived from a continuous phagocyte cell line and a method of producing such a cell line is provided.
