Embodiment approach
[0018]The present disclosure provides a method for estimating the number of phagocytes in a body fluid of an animal, the method comprising: stimulating the NADPH oxidase activity of the phagocytes; and quantifying chemiluminescence by emission of chemiluminescent substrates using an instrument capable of measuring light. Reductive deoxygenation of luminescent substrates.
[0019] In one embodiment, the NADPH oxidase activity of the phagocyte is stimulated by an immune or chemical agent capable of activating the respiratory burst of the phagocyte.
[0020] In one embodiment, the NADPH oxidase activity of the phagocyte is stimulated by a stimulus in solution or coated onto a surface that the phagocyte contacts. The irritant may be phorbol myristate acetate (PMA).
[0021] In one embodiment, the animal is a human.
[0022] In one embodiment, the bodily fluid is blood.
[0023] In one embodiment, the body fluid is spinal fluid. Spinal fluid can be diluted up to 1 / 100 to reduce...
Embodiment
[0044] The following non-limiting examples provide scientific data supporting the concepts disclosed herein.
[0045] The human blood samples tested were provided by local clinical testing laboratories. De-identified blood samples were obtained with time of venipuncture, subject's age in years, sex, and printout from an automated hematology analyzer (Advia 120, Siemens AG). Order full The reason for blood counts and information about the subject's medical condition is unknown.
[0046] Blood samples were kept at ambient temperature (22±8°C) prior to testing. Each of the 58 blood samples was tested in triplicate. The mean (mean) post-venipuncture blood age plus standard deviation (SD) of blood at the time of initial testing was 4.1 ± 1.1 hours and the median post-venipuncture blood age was 4.1 hours.
[0047] Samples were retested approximately 6 hours later; mean blood age plus SD after venipuncture was 10.8 ± 2.0 hours, with a median of 10.4 hours. Blood was also tested at ...
