Studies on rosette‐forming cells and IgG, IgA, IgM and IgE‐bearing lymphocytes were carried out in 70 healthy children aged 5 to 15 years. Furthermore, in 20 of these children, the percentages of IgG, IgA, IgM and IgE‐containing blast cells after pokeweed mitogen stimulation of peripheral lymphocytes were evaluated. No differences in the percentages of rosette‐forming cells, or in Ig‐bearing and Ig‐containing cells were found when three different age‐groups were compared.
