Cover with a 22x22-mm coverslip that has been presoaked in 70% ethanol and flamed. Do not allow air bubbles to be left underneath coverslip. Repeat steps 10 and ll for each preparation to be tested. Completed test includes assays with: 1. no antigen, 2. Phytohemagglutinin (PHA)(2g/ml, final concentration), 3. inner ear membrane antigen (approximately= 5 pg/ml, final concen-tration), and 4. control antigen (approximately s5 pg/ml, final concentration). Each test is run in triplicate or quadruplicate,
