Effect of bacterial competition on the opsonization, phagocytosis, and intracellular killing of microorganisms by granulocytes.

The ingestion of Escherichia coli by human granulocytes in vitro was reduced in the presence of Bacteroides fragilis or Staphylococcus aureus. This reduction of ingestion proved to be mainly attributable to the absence of opsonization of E. coli, which was due to complement consumption by B. fragili...
