Method |
A technique that combines metaphase arrest with immunofluorescence labeling |
Comments |
The calculated rate of cell production by
pre-B cells totals 0.5x10^8 cells/day (Table IV), representing the
potential for the marrow to contribute a continuous supply of
newly formed primary B cells to the immune system in the normal
steady state |
