Abstract
The oxygen, uptake of lightly heparinized human blood was found to increase markedly upon the addition of bacterial endotoxins, soluble antigen-antibody complexes, or polystyrene latex particles. The effect apparently reflects a transitory stimulation of respiratory activity of the blood leucocytes.Keywords
