title: [Changes in the phagocytic activity of macrophages under the action of different doses of antibiotics].
abstract: Penicillin, streptomycin and gentamicin, when introduced into mice in a single injection in doses of 0.5-500,000 U/kg, produced different changes in the phagocytic activity of mouse peritoneal macrophages. Bactericidal doses of these antibiotics either suppressed the activity of macrophages or left it unchanged. Their sub-bactericidal doses enhanced the phagocytic activity of macrophages. Combined use of penicillin and streptomycin produced a synergic effect.
