Abstract
The seasonal patterns of circulating basophils were investigated in a sample of 33,000 French subjects, aged 20–60 years. Circannual variations (minimum in October, maximum in July) which might be related to pollens were observed. Periods with cold weather (temperature below 0°C) correlated to a temporary rise in basophils.Keywords
