Abstract
Bone marrow colony formation in soft gel culture may be stimulated by substances elaborated by human peripheral blood leukocytes. In order to determine the cell type responsible for colony stimulation, peripheral leukocytes were separated by Ficoll-Hypaque gradients and differential glass adhesion. Morphologic, histochemical, and functional criteria were applied to determine the purity of the monocyte, lymphocyte, and neutrophil fractions.
