Nitroblue Tetrazolium Reduction in Lymphocytes

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 1987
Abstract Certain populations of lymphocytes have been shown to reduce tetrazolium salts, indicating that superoxide anion may be present in lymphocytes. These experiments were done to determine if nitroblue tetrazolium reduction by lymphocytes was due to the presence of superoxide anion.

Nitroblue tetrazolium test in neonates

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1978
THE NITROBLUE TETRAZOLIUM test was introduced by Parks et al 1 in 1968 as an aid in the diagnosis of acute bacterial infection. Its use is based on the observation that neutrophil reduction of NBT to an intracellular formazan precipitate is increased under conditions of bacterial infection.

NITROBLUE-TETRAZOLIUM TESTS

The Lancet, 1974
Abstract Nitroblue tetrazolium (N.B.T.) is an interesting compound which is of value in the study of neutrophil physiology. It is useful in the study of phagocytosis and factors effecting phagocytosis, since its addition to blood results in the formation of a particulate object of phagocytosis, while at the same time the dye, which is complexed to ...

The Nitroblue Tetrazolium Test in Tuberculosis

American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1974
Of 43 patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis, 44% had positive NBT tests. The NBT test in seven cases reverted to negative with antituberculous therapy. Alcoholism, diabetes mellitus, and prior steroid administration did not affect the test.

The Nitroblue Tetrazolium Test in Lymphoma

American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1973
The nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) dye test was performed in 25 cases of lymphoma. Four of six patients with active, untreated lymphoma and with no evidence of bacterial infection had positive NBT tests (more than 10% of neutrophils reduced the dye to formazan). One of these four patients had occasional negative tests.

RE-EVALUATION OF NITROBLUE- TETRAZOLIUM TEST

The Lancet, 1973
Abstract The nitroblue tetrazolium (N.B.T.) test has been widely recognised as a useful method of distinguishing between pyogenic bacterial infection and other disease processes. This test, done by two different methods, has been re-evaluated on 223 individuals including healthy controls and patients with a wide spectrum of disease.

Quantitative nitroblue tetrazolium test in mongolism

Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1975
THE leucocyte function in mongols was assessed using the quantitative NBT test, white cell count, and ESR. In a group of 28 well mongols, eight had raised ESRs. The NBT results in this group differed from those with normal ESRs. It is suggested that future investigations of leucocyte function of mongols must take account of the level of the ESR.
