For example coated bateria with serum and uncaoted bacteria, what is the difference between these two in terms of phagocytosis?
In serum the immunoglobulin G and complement proteins can improve the phagocytosis of bactéria.
Thanks Eduardo
Thanks ghasemian
Heat inactivated serum(56oC for 30 minin water bath) must be used for coating/opsonization. THe complement proteins and immunoglobins in serum enhance the phagocytosis as there are complement and antibody recepptors on the phagocytes.
Thanks vipin
The serum have complement protein and Immunoglobulin and they can promote phagocytosis via opsonization mechanism.
thanks Suttee
