[Clinical significance and study of granulocyte function]
Abstract:
Concerning the total defense of the body the function of granulocytes in the determining parts of phagocytosis (motility, chemotaxis, opsonation, ingestion, microbicidia) are described and the congenital and acquired distrubances of phagocytosis are treated as short survey as well as partly explained by clinical examples. Out of the manifold possibilities of examinations of the function of granulocytes the NBT-test is described as an estimation of the function of granulocytes usable in clinical routine wotk and its application is recommended.
