Abstract
It is known that the process of phagocytosis in polymorphonuclear leukocytes and in macrophages is associated with a dramatic change in oxidative metabolism. This change includes: an increase in oxygen consumption, in O −2 and H2O2 generation and in glucose catabolism through the hexose monophosphate pathway (HMP) (3,7,9,10,13,20–23,29,31,44–46,49,56). These metabolic changes are referred to as the “respiratory burst” of phagocytic cells.
