| Interpretive Data: |
Phytohemagglutinin, concanavalin A, pokeweed mitogen, Candida antigen, and tetanus antigen are tested independently in mononuclear cell culture. Cell proliferation in response to mitogens and antigens is determined by 3H-thymidine incorporation. Cytokine production in response to mitogens is determined by multi-analyte fluorescence detection.
Proliferation results are reported as the mitogen and/or antigen stimulated counts per minute (CPM) and a stimulation index (SI) which represents the ratio of the stimulated lymphocyte CPM to an unstimulated control CPM. Cytokine results are reported in pg/mL.
Results are to be used for research purposes or in attempts to understand the pathophysiology of immune, infectious, or inflammatory disorders.
Please refer to Statement B in the Compliance Statements section in the front of the Laboratory Test Directory.

Interpretation comparing the patient results to the simultaneously collected client normal control and the laboratory normal control will be provided by an ARUP medical director.
