Abstract
By in vitro methods, 5 aminoglycoside antibiotics (amikacin, kanamycin, gentamicin, tobramycin, and netilmicin) were shown to produce modest changes in granulocyte [human] adherence (increase) and migration (decrease) and no change in phagocytosis or nitroblue tetrazolium reduction.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
