Le test utilisant les cellules «Raji» consiste à incuber le sérum à tester avec des cellules lymphoblastoïdes maintenues en culture, les cellules «Raji». La suspension cellulaire est ensuite lavée et on lui ajoute la fraction Ig radiomarquée d’un sérum de lapin anti-Ig humaine. Les complexes immuns qui se sont fixés sur les cellules «Raji»(par l'intermédiaire du Ciq et du C3 qu'ils ont fixé in vivo) lient l'antisérum marqué. Le test peut être faussé par la présence d’anticorps antilymphocytaires. 1, record 6, French, - test%20utilisant%20les%20cellules%20%C2%ABRaji%C2%BB

Cylindre de décantation. Principe : si on laisse sédimenter une suspension uniforme pendant "t" secondes et qu'ensuite on décante à une profondeur "h" centimètres, le liquide non décanté contient toutes les particules qui ont des vitesses de chute supérieures à "h/t", plus les particules de vitesse inférieure à "h/t" qu'il contenait déjà.(...) L'appareillage est fort simple. Un récipient de un litre environ, de hauteur 12, 5cm muni d’un siphon à 25mm du fond, contient la suspension; la fraction qui doit être décantée est soutirée par siphon ou robinet. 1, record 8, French, - cylindre%20de%20d%C3%A9cantation
