Role of the Phagocyte in Host-Parasite Interactions XI. Relationship Between Stimulated Oxidative Metabolism and Hydrogen Peroxide Formation, and Intracellular Killing

The increased respiratory and hexose monophosphate activities noted in phagocytizing cells results in the formation of hydrogen peroxide. This is brought about by the oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate by its oxidase. Evidence is presented which indicates that this H(2)...
