PEC collected at 24h interval after elicitation with 6% sodium caseinate or thioglycolate medium were transferred to culture dish in RPMI 1640 (RPMI), and the cells were incubated in CO₂ incubator for 2h. To distinguish macrophage and neutrophil, the adherent cells washed with RPMI to remove non-adherent cells were analyzed histochemically by the staining of two different esterase activities. The number of PEC was maximally increased at 3 days after injection with 15 ml of sodium caseinate, whereas that of macrophages was at 4 days after injection. Most. (about 90%) of cells cultured for 24h were positive for α-Naphthyl butyrate esterase activity but they were not positive for Naphthol AS-D chloroacetate esterase activity, confirming them to be macrophage. They were able to culture for 48h in RPMI containing 5% heat inactivated calf serum. It was possible to prepare two culture dishes of macrophage monolayer (1.33 x 10⁵/cm²) from one carp (800-900g) by this method., 崎大学水産学部研究報告, v.74・75, pp.51-57; 1993}, pages = {51--57}, title = {コイ腹腔滲出細胞からのマクロファージの調製}, volume = {74・75}, year = {1993} }
