Modulation of phagocytic activity of blood polynuclear leukocytes with ozonized physiological saline.

We studied the effect of ozonized physiological saline on phagocytic properties of polymorphonuclear neutrophilic leukocytes from dog blood. Intravenous infusion of the examined doses of ozonized saline stimulated phagocytosis. Repeated intravenous infusion (48 h after) of the same dose was followed by a significant decrease in phagocytic capacity of polynuclears.
