Abstract: | When phagocytes have engulfed particles of sufficient size, the percentages of phagocytic cells containing 0, 1, 2, 3… particles can be measured by microscopic count. Two complementary models yield theoretical formulae for these percentages and these are checked with some experimental data. It is concluded that these models give a fair account of experimental results, and can provide us with a new kind of knowledge concerning phagocytosis. |
