Evaluation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) for detection of interleukin-12 production using luminex / Areena Balqis Mohd Fuad

PBMCs embody the cellular part of the blood organ containing all blood cells with a round nucleus which mainly constitute of monocytes, dendritic cells, natural killer (NK) cells, B cells, T cells, and which plays a crucial role in the immune system and also respond in an inflammatory manner. The po...
