Fig. 2. Opsonic activities of different concentrations of coelomic fluid (CF). Sea
urchins received two injections of LPS at 2-day intervals and CF was collected
3 days after the second LPS injection and diluted with ASW (% CF) before being
used to opsonize yeast for 40 min. Phagocytosis was allowed to proceed for 45
min. PSI, phagocytic stimulation index (see Materials and methods). Values are
means ± S.E.M.(N=8).
