Abstract
Expression of Concern: The PHA-Skin Test Reflects Acquired T-Cell Mediated Immunocompetence in Birds
Highlights
Experiment # 2 was aimed to assess to what extent the tissue swelling elicited by the PHA test was related to changes in cell profiles circulating in the bloodstream
Experimental assays were again conducted by Jose L. Tella (JLT) and Martina Carrete (MC), who bled the birds and sent plasma samples to Dr Lemus for laboratory analyses
Dr Lemus did not have any contact with the birds used in this experiment and conducted the laboratory analyses blindly
Summary
Expression of Concern: The PHA-Skin Test Reflects Acquired T-Cell Mediated Immunocompetence in Birds The authors and the editors are issuing this Expression of Concern on the PLOS ONE article entitled ‘‘The PHA-skin test reflects acquired T-cell mediated immunocompetence in birds’’, to make readers aware of concerns over part of the results and conclusions of the study. Tella (JLT) and Martina Carrete (MC), who performed the experimental assays, recorded data and conducted all statistical analyses.
