Analysis of autofluorescence in polymorphonuclear neutrophils: a new tool for early infection diagnosis.
Diagnosing bacterial infection (BI) remains a challenge for the attending physician. An ex vivo infection model based on human fixed polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) gives an autofluorescence signal that differs significantly between stimulated and unstimulated cells.
