Chromium
(51Cr) Release Assay
9 used to
evaluate the in vitro efficiency of Tcytotoxic cell in lysing
such target cells as tumor cells,
allogenic cells, or viral infected
cells
9 when target
cells are lyzed the chromium-labeled proteins are released and amount of chromium released (in
the supernatant) is proportional
to the quantity of lyzed cells
