ABSTRACT:
A means of selectively lysing leukocytes but not bacteria is described. This technique is useful in conjunction with a reduction analysis to provide a rapid interference-free determination of either leukocytes or bacteria in clinical samples. The method is adaptable to a solution or dry element mode.
