From: Blood collection technique, anticoagulants and storing temperature have minor effects on the isolation of polymorphonuclear neutrophils

Figure 7

Effects of storing temperatures after isolation for all coagulants combined: isolated PMNs were stored at 4, 22 or 37 °C for 3 h. (A) PMN counts. (B) respiratory burst activity, determined by fluorescence as mean over 1,000 cells counted. (C) Δ Burst as difference between the mean fluorescence of the activated sample and the mean fluorescence of the control sample. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01, n = 6, data are shown as mean ± SEM.
