Candida albicans could not be isolated from the cases of positive skin test for Candida, but was some-times isolated from the cases of negative skin test. Macro-phage migration inhibitory factor of tonsillar lymphocyte decreased in the cases with positive skin test, but not in the cases with negative skin test. In some cases with positive skin test, Candida albicans was isolated for a time even after tonsillectomy. The results suggest that tonsillar lymphocyte plays an important roleon cellular immunity.
