Abstract excerpt
Density gradient centrifugation was applied to isolate cell subsets from tumor cyst and ascitic fluid in eight patients with ovarian serous carcinoma. A comparison of cellular composition and immunologic reactivity of cells from the cysts and from ascitic fluid in each patient was performed. Some differences in density profiles were found, but in each case the consistency of morphologic cell forms in the primary...
