| Abstract | A new technique for the enumeration of antigen-reactive cells (ARC) responsive to the polymer antigen of S. adelaide flagellin (POL) is described for two strains of mice. Foci have been shown to be antibody dependent, may be mimicked by IgM as well as IgG antibodies, and contain specific antibody-forming cells (AFC). The use of POL offers a system unencumbered by relatively high numbers of background foci which, when present, appear to be basically different from those found using the SRBC antigen. The response of 1 antigen-reactive cell (ARC) focus/1 x 106 CBAT6T6 mouse spleen cells is linearly related to the injected number between 1 x 106–3 x 106 donor spleen cells and since 5% of injected cells remain in the spleen, there are an estimated 2400 ARC/spleen. The number of ARC foci does not increase significantly after the 5th postantigen day, and by the 8th day the AFC progeny of ARC have reached the maximum mean of 280 AFC/ARC focus. In response to increasing antigen concentrations, an initial rise in the number of AFC as well as ARC is observed, resulting in a relatively constant AFC/ARC ratio. This suggests that the number of ARC stimulated determines the total number of AFC produced under these conditions rather than a variable mitotic rate of the ARC offspring. The main significance of this technique is that it will allow a study of the kinetics of the ARC in the primary and secondary immune response as well as in immunological tolerance. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
