摘要：

Larvae of the greater wax moth, Galleria mellonella, were more susceptible to infection by bacteria after intrahemocoelic injections of zymosan. Although the zymosan particles were rapidly phagocytized, efficiency of the phagocytes was not impaired. Polysterene latex particles were also rapidly phagocytized but neither caused the serum to melanize (as did zymosan) or increased susceptibility. The possibility that zymosan may cause the removal of substances that inhibit bacteria is discussed. © 1968.
