Changes the number retinal CD11b+ cells following LD.

<p><b>A:</b> Using flow cytometry, the percentage of CD11b+ cells within the retinal homogenate was found to double following 24hrs LD (P < 0.05). The proportion of CD11b+ cells continued to increase after 3 days post-exposure (P < 0.05), through was stabilised by 7 days (P > 0.05). The overall trend in CD11b+ cell number across the time course was significant by ANOVA (P < 0.05); N = 5 for each timepoint. <b>B:</b> Representative flow cytometry plots with gating strategies are shown for a 3 days post-exposure sample stained for CD11b; gating methodology was applied equally for all samples.
