| Title | Thermal Behaviour of Lymphocyte Membrane: ESR Investigation  | ||
| Abstract | The order parameter, S, of the plasma membrane of in toto human peripheral blood lym phocytes was obtained by electron spin resonance spectroscopy in the temperature range 25-41 C. This membrane is completely in the liquid crystalline state above 31 C. In presence of the antigen ETB from Staphylococcus aureus at the concentration of 4 (ig/3 * 107 cells an overall decrease of the order parameter for this membrane is observed. The decrease of 5 is followed by an upwards shift at about 35 C of the temperature of the liquid crystalline state. | ||
