The present invention relates generally to a diagnostic assay and, more particularly, an assay for measuring cell-mediated immune reactivity. Even more particularly, the present invention provides an assay and a kit for measuring a cell-mediated response to an antigen using whole blood or other suitable biological sample. The assay may be conducted using ligands to immune effector molecules or at the nucleic acid level, screening for expression of genes encoding the immune effector molecules. The assay is useful in therapeutic and diagnostic protocols for human, livestock and veterinary and wild life applications.
