PMID: 11329444.Clin Diagn Lab Immunol. 2001 May. Development of a Novel In Vitro Assay (ALS Assay) for Evaluation of Vaccine-Induced Antibody Secretion from Circulating Mucosal Lymphocytes.
An assay that evaluates a blood specimen for antibodies currently being produced by lymphocytes in the specimen, by separating peripheral blood mononuclear cells, culturing them, and then collecting the supernatant containing the antibodies secreted from those cells.
