Abstract excerpt
Characterization of lymphocytes in bronchoalveolar fluid has provided insight into the pathogenesis of many pulmonary diseases. Identification of lymphocyte phenotypes has become highly successful due to development of specific monoclonal antibodies and reliable methods for detecting labeled cells such as flow cytometry (FCM) and immunocytochemistry. FCM permits rapid screening of many cells, but this analysis...
