An automated biological cell sorting system (ABCS) based on laser light scattering method have been designed and constructed for clinical applications. Using the ABCS, the sizes of various lands of cells were measured and cells were separated on their sizes. Daily morphological changes in lymphocytes after stimulation of mitogen or mixed lymphocyte culture were cautiously examined.
In 10 cases of renal patients, the daily morphological changes in lymphocytes before and after renal transplantations have been measured, Marked changes of size of lymphocytes were observed during acute rejection crisis, especially the changes were observed just before rejection episodes. Thus, acute rejection crisis could be predicted rapidly and easily by the ABCS.
