Q. Which type of defense cell do bacteria attract and cause to multiply during the inflammation process? What is the name given to the waste material produced by the inflammation triggered by bacterial infection?
The major leukocytes that generally participate and multiply in the inflammation reaction against bacterial infections are the neutrophils. In this type of inflammation the blood levels of these cells are increased, a clinical condition called as neutrophilia.
In the bacterial inflammation fragments of tissues, dead bacteria and dead neutrophils form the pus.
