The redox activity of peritoneal macrophages has been evaluated in the modified NBT test using tetranitro blue tetrazolium. This method permits the calculation of the total amount of peritoneal macrophages and the determination of their glass adherence per cent and their cytochemical activity value. The advantages of this method over the study of the phagocytic activity by means of phage T2 is shown.
