Mechanism of Bacterial Killing by the Peritoneal and Hepatic Macrophage Population: Oxidative Bactericidal Mechanisms of Phagocytic cells.

Abstract

The overall purpose of the project is to understand the means by which phagocytes kill bacteria. The goals originally set for the year covered by the report were to carry out further studies of the glycosidases of Kupffer cells, investigating the effect of bacteria on the activities of the glycosidases as a function of time and other parameters. During the project year, and with the permission of the USAMRDC, a major change was made in the direction of the research supported by the present contract.
