title: Effect of He-Ne laser irradiation on phagocytic activity of leukocytes in vitro.
abstract: The effect of various doses of He-Ne laser light (1-50 J/cm2) on phagocytic activity of peripheral blood leukocytes was studied under in vitro conditions. The used method employing microspherical particles on the basis of hydrophilic polymers minimized the amount of biological material and allowed a homogeneous irradiation by means of fiberoptics. The doses of 5 to 10 J/cm2 induced a significant increase in phagocytic activity.
