Effects of high (10 μg) and low (1 μg) levels of LTA and antibiotics on phagocytosis in human neutrophils isolated from healthy volunteers (n = 5). Phagocytosis was assessed at 4 h after stimulation using pHrodo S. aureus bioparticles and a fluorescent plate reader. Percent effect, based on the unstimulated control is shown in (a). Mean fluorescence values, as determined via fluorescence spectrophotometry, are depicted in (b). Statistical significance was determined using Two-way ANOVA * p < 0.05. VAN, vancomycin; CFT, ceftaroline; DAP, daptomycin
