✦ Synopsis
The effect of bioactive glasses on human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNLs) were studied in vitro by a chemiluminescence (CL) assay. Eight different glasses were chosen. All glasses induced a rapid CL response by human PMNLs, which proved to be dose dependent. The CL response also seemed to depend on the durability of the glasses. The least durable glass caused the highest CL re-sponse, and highly durable glasses caused only low CL responses by the cells.
