Abstract

Three transfusions of blood irradiated at 254 nm induce an increase of phagocytic activity of peritoneal macrophages in rats with peritonitis in comparison with infusion of intact blood. Addition of aspirin, an inhibitor of enzymatic peroxidation of lipids, to the irradiated portion of the blood before irradiation abolishes this stimulating effect.
