Experiments were performed to examine the function of neutrophil membrane receptors in oral bacterial infections. For this purpose, Fc and C3b receptors on human peripheral blood neutrophils and exudate neutrophils obtained from subcutaneous abscesses were studied by using the rosette-forming method.
