Abstract
Summary
Immunological and visual counting methods are described for following the circulatory clearance of sheep erythrocytes in mice. In the immunological assay the uptake of anti-sheep erythrocyte hemolysin by mouse blood was measured. Visual counts were based on the finding that, contrary to mouse erythrocytes, sheep erythrocytes are morphologically altered by hypotonic Gower's solution. The clearance rates observed by the two methods were in close agreement.
