## Abstract Cis‐unsaturated free fatty acids (FFA) at concentrations between 10 and 30 μM suppressed the superoxide respiratory burst induced in human neutrophils by the chemotactic peptide, N‐formylmethionyl‐leucyl‐phenylalanine (FMLP). Corresponding trans‐isomers had a reduced efficacy while satu
