STUDIES ON THE MECHANISMS OF HYPERSENSITIVITY PHENOMENA : IX. HISTAMINE RELEASE FROM HUMAN LEUKOCYTES BY RAGWEED POLLEN ANTIGEN

Human leukocytes, isolated from the blood of ragweed-sensitive donors, release histamine upon reaction with a purified protein antigen derived from this pollen. The release process has been studied with washed cells suspended in a defined, serum-free medium. Physiologic levels of pH, ionic strength...
