Abstract
Reproducible quantitation of cell-associated immunoglobulins was accomplished with
the use of an ammonium sulfate technique. Blood lymphocytes produced immunoglobulins
when cultured in a protein-containing medium; the quantity synthesized was similar
in replicate cultures from the same donor but varied from donor to donor. In no instance
was phytohemagglutinin blastic transformation associated with an increase in immunoglobulin
production above that seen in parallel cultures ontaining no phytohemagglutinin.
