  • Title: Effect of a new fluorinated quinolone (ofloxacin) on the chemiluminescence of phagocytosing human neutrophils.
    Author: Aquilini D, Bartoloni A, Paradisi F.
    Journal: J Biolumin Chemilumin; 1989; 3(2):85-7. PubMed ID: 2728916.
    Abstract:
    We measured the chemiluminescence (CL) of human neutrophils (PMNLs) exposed to different concentrations of ofloxacin (2, 4, and 6 micrograms/ml) readily achievable in therapy. CL reaction during zymosan phagocytosis by PMNLs obtained from human healthy volunteers was registered in a computer-linked LKB 1251 luminometer. Ofloxacin did not induce significant variations on the respiratory burst of PMNLs.
