b/t cell ratio of rabbit peripheral blood lymphocytes. influence of separation technique on results.	spontaneous in vitro t cell rosette formation at room temperature leading to enrichment of b cells has been reported. we tested 10 individual new zealand white rabbits sequentially, separating the lymphocytes either at room temperature or at 37 degrees c. t cells are lost constantly at room temperature but to a lesser extent at 37 degrees c. the determination of the yield of lymphocytes after ficoll separation gives the best control for the accuracy of the results. if lymphocytes are separated a ...	1985	3889161

clinical experience with the use of charcoal haemoperfusion: is prostacyclin required?	twenty patients have undergone a total of 47 charcoal haemoperfusions without the use of prostacyclin. a fall in platelet numbers and evidence of platelet activation have been found during haemoperfusion but few clinical complications have been observed. therefore, we believe that the clinical value of the addition of prostacyclin during charcoal haemoperfusion has not been proven. nevertheless, its apparent protective effect on platelet numbers and activation indicates that further controlled t ...	2011	3894813
