A simple, objective semi-quantitative assay for yeast opsonisation by normal polymorphs has been developed. This depends on electronically counting the number of free unphagocytosed yeast particles on a Coulter counter. The method has been compared with the widely used microscope technique and shows excellent correlation. The sera of 112 unselected school-children gave a distribution curve consistent with 2 peaks; 7 gave values less than 2 S.D.s below the mean confirming the high incidence of this immunodeficiency.
