Abstract
The NBT activity of granulocytes from 11 influenza patients was determined during the acute stage of the disease and 6–8 weeks after recovery. The NBT activity was generally higher during influenza than after recovery. In the presence as well as in the absence of the patient's serum the differences were significant both without and with Escherichia coli stimulation.This publication has 18 references indexed in Scilit:
