Abstract
CELL lines have been established in vitro from peripheral leucocytes taken from patients with leukaemia1–4, lymphomas1 and malignant melanoma with leukaemoid reaction5. There are also two reports of cell lines derived from presumably normal leucocytes6,7. We have found that in infectious mononucleosis cell lines can readily be established from peripheral leucocytes.
