[Determination of quantitative parameters of Escherichia coli phagocytosis by mouse peritoneal macrophages].

The fluorometric method was used to study guantitative parameters of phagocytosis of fluorescein-labeled Escherichia coli cells by mouse peritoneal macrophages. E. coli cells were conjugated with fluoresceinisothiocyanate (FITC) and then incubated with macrophages.
