Influence of Tołpa Peat Preparation on the phagocytic activity and bactericidal properties of granulocytes in healthy volunteers.
It was found, that Tołpa Peat Preparation (TPP) administered to healthy volunteers in doses of 100-300 mg/day during 14 days evoked the stimulation of the phagocytic and bactericidal activity of the granulocytes. The dose of 600 mg/day causes only a transient and insignificant increase of phagocytic and bactericidal properties of the granulocytes.
