The effect of riboflavin or pyridoxine deficiency on phagocytosis was examined in rats to elucidate the mechanism of impaired wound healing in these deficiencies reported earlier. Phagocytic ingestion by peritoneal leukocytes was 60.4% and 68%, respectively, in riboflavin-or pyridoxine-deficient rat
## Abstract Studies were carried out to measure changes in the transmembrane potential of rat alveolar macrophages during exposure of the cells to zymosan particles or to the membrane perturbant, phorbolβ12βmyristateβ13βacetate (PMA), and to determine if changes in membrane potential are related to
