The validity of the virus cells is dependent on the rate and amount of coinciding interferon production which varies with different strains of mice. The V-PFC assay demonstrates that the kinetics of cellular activation by mitogens initially involves about 0.01% of responding cells and possibly recruitment of other cells which include cells requiring a longer lag period for activation.
