Abstract

Abstract A simple method for obtaining living leukocytes from human peripheral blood is presented. It consists of the addition of fibrinogen to heparinized blood. Essentially all the leukocytes remain in plasma suspension and essentially all the erythrocytes are sedimented out at the end of one hour.
