STIMULATION OF EPITHELIOID CELL RESPONSE IN EXPERIMENTAL GUINEA PIG TUBERCULOSIS

In the course of experiments on the effects of anti-spleen tissue serum on the rate of wound healing in experimental animals (Maltz et al. 1948a, b), the local histological response ob-served led us to consider the effect of such sera on pathological processes. Miale (1947) re-ported that such antisera elicited a mononuclear cell response in the peripheral blood of dogs. This finding supported our observations and therefore the following trials on experimental tuberculosis in guinea pigs were undertaken. EXPERIMENTAL METHOD A. Animal distribution. Normal guinea pigs weighing between 350 to 450 g were controlled for enteric infection, tuberculin tested, separate

The spin-polarized current through a planar double-barrier magnetic tunnel junction has been calculated using the quasi-classical model. The coefficients of electron transmission through the barriers have been calculated in terms of the quantum theory. The dependences of the transmission coefficients, spinpolarized currents, and tunneling magnetoresistance on the applied voltage under resonant conditions have been shown. Under non-resonant conditions, the tunneling magnetoresistance has been compared with the experimental data. © 2013 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd
