[Erythrocyte and lymphocyte interaction with streptococcal L-forms].

The adsorption of human, sheep and human red blood cells and human lymphocytes on the colonies of streptococci in the L-form has been studied. Th electron-microscopic study of the interaction between human lymphocytes and streptococcal L-forms is suspensions has also been carried out. The red blood cells of all species under study, as well as human lymphocytes, have been found capable of being adsorbed on the colonies of streptococci in the L-form, this adsorption occurring only on the periphery of the colony.
