title: Bactericidal activity of a granule extract from human polymorphonuclear leukocytes against Bacteroides species.
abstract: The microbicidal activity of an acetate extract of human polymorphonuclear leukocyte granules was tested against Bacteroides fragilis, Bacteroides vulgatus, Bacteroides distasonis and Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron. All strains tested were killed by the extract, and there were no significant differences between the different Bacteroides species.
