Effect of hypothermia and endotoxin on phagocytosis

Abstract:
Experiments with colloidal 198Au indicated that gold clearance highly decreased in rabbits cooled to 29-30 degrees C. The capacity of storing colloidal gold decreased especially in the spleen and liver. Endotoxin reduced the gold clearance in normothermic rabbits; the decrease was more marked in hypothermic animals.
