Listericidal activity of non-stimulated and stimulated human macrophages in vitro
Abstract
An in vitro biological assay system has been described to quantify the listericidal activity of human macrophages grown from peripheral blood monocytes. Within 15 min after in vitro infection, the activated macrophages showed a faster and higher degree in killing capacity as compared to the nonactivated ones; the killing process early and was of short duration.
