Résumé

Des rats ont été injectés par voie péritonéale avec une suspension de zymosan, une préparation de parois de levure,Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Les cellules de la lymphe péritonéale furent étudiées après au microscope optique et électronique. Ces expériences ont démontré que les mastocytes changent d'aspect et que les particules de zymosan se retrouvent dans des vacuoles cytoplasmiques peu après l'injection. Les mastocytes sont donc des cellules capables de phagocytose.
