title: Inhibition of granulocyte phagocytosis of Candida albicans by amphotericin B.
abstract: Phagocytic activity of PMN's in five healthy and five burned patients were measured in vitro. Addition of 1 microgram per millilitre of amphotericin B to the assay produced a marked inhibitory effect of the phagocytic activity of PMN against C. albicans.
