Staphylococcus aureus is the leading pathogenic cause of nosocomial infections, especially in bacteriaemia and sepsis. Phagocytosis is known to be an essential factor of innate immunity. The aim of this study was to evaluate phagocytic activity of leucocytes in experimental bacteriaemia. Bacteriaemia was induced in six adult male mongrel dogs (experimental group) by intravenous injection of Staphylococcus aureus isolate (1.2x109 cells/ml). Phagocytic activity was evaluated before infection (0 h.), and on the 2nd, 6th, 24th, 48th hour, and on the 7th, 14th and 21st day after infection. Six control animals were tested in the same dynamics. Phagocytic activity was evaluated by using the Nitrotetrazolium blue reduction (NBT) test, and the immun...
