Based on these experiments, the quantitative in vitro detection of cell-mediated reactions towards nickel as well as other heavy metal ions should be possible utilizing the above-described ELISpot assay.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
