[Phagocytosis activity of the isolated perfused rat liver].

Abstract

The reticulohistiocytary system was tested with colloidal carbon. Isolated livers were perfused at 20 degrees C, 28 degrees C, 37 degrees C and 45 degrees C with a hemoglobin and protein free medium. It was shown that the perfusion at 28 degrees C revealed a significantly better phagocytosis as at temperatures of 37 degrees C and 45 degrees C. The control parameters of the liver function got, gpt lactate-pyruvate, beta-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate displayed the best results at 28 degrees C.
