Abstract

Understanding the pathophysiology of Pneumocystis carinii infection has been limited by the availability of methods for precisely measuring the interaction of P. carinii with host cells. Here we describe a new method which allows for the rapid assessment of P. carinii binding to, and internalization by, adherent alveolar macrophages. The method is based on the detection of fluorescein-labelled P. carinii by an automated fluorescence measurement system.
