Effects of glutamine-containing total parenteral nutrition on phagocytic activity and anabolic hormone response in rats undergoing gastrectomy

Figure 5 Phagocytic activity of peritoneal macrophages and peripheral blood neutrophils. A: Phagocytic activity of peritoneal macrophages measured by phagocytosis assay and read in the fluorescence plate reader using 480 nm for excitation and 520 nm for emission. ^aP<0.05 vs control group on post-1d; B: Peripheral blood neutrophils measured by flow cytometry; ^cP<0.05 vs the corresponding groups on post-operative days.
