## Abstract Polystyrene latex spherules are rapidly phagocytized by polymorphonuclear leucocytes. Surface modifications of the latex spherules can lead to an inhibition of phagocytosis, and the purpose of this study was to analyse in particular inhibition by bovine and human serum albumin. It can b

## Abstract Surface chemistry of CoCr particles is demonstrated to be fundamental to the process of phagocytosis by fibroblast cells __in vitro__. Particles preincubated in serum for 5 days and washed in water before addition to cell cultures were phagocytosed less readily than were particles prein
## Abstract Albumin in low concentrations (0.001โ0.01 weight percent) was found to be an effective inhibitor of phagocytosis of polystyrene latex beads by rabbit polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Polyglutamic acid proved to be an inhibitor of latex uptake at even lower concentrations. Polylysine stimul
A facile synthesis of functionalized poly[3(4)-methylstyrene] (PMS) latex particles containing aldehyde and carboxylic acid groups was achieved via an emulsion polymerization of 3(4)-methylstyrene in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfonate, followed by an in-situ oxidation catalyzed by copper(II) c
