Abstract

Phagocytic capacity was determined in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes with a modified flow cytometry technique. The advantages of this method include simplified sample preparation--the assay is done using whole blood--and quantification of phagocytosis with a phagocytic index obtained by comparison with controls, which obviates errors arising from non-specific adherence.
