  1. The number of target cells that were engulfed by macrophages was counted directly using the Ikoniscope. Targets that were conjugated to macrophages were defined as having cell-to-cell membrane contact but no envelopment. Targets and macrophages could readily be identified separately. The percentages of engulfed and conjugated cells are compared with the percentage of targets classified as having undergone ADCP using FACS analysis of the same preparation of cells.
