  • Title: [Spectrophotometric method of evaluating tumor cell agglutination induced by lectins].
    Author: Viadro MM.
    Journal: Eksp Onkol; 1984; 6(1):70-2. PubMed ID: 6594228.
    Abstract:
    The lectin (PHA and Con A) induced agglutination of a human tumour cell line (lung adenocarcinoma and osteosarcoma) was estimated by the spectrophotometric method. A decrease in the optic density for 1 min (delta D) of cell suspension and the time (t0) necessary for a complete sedimentation of cells (at delta D = 0) were used as quantitative indicators of agglutination. An increase in the concentration of tumour cells and lectins resulted in an increase of delta D and a decrease of t0. The results of spectrophotometry were correlated with the microscopic study data for tumour cells agglutination.
