Phagocytes

Cfa collection: John Nash Ott Collection
Notes: Beginning in 1948, Dr. William B. Wartman, chair of Northwestern University's pathology department, commissioned John Nash Ott to conduct cancerous cell division studies as well as to research the effects of environment, chemical responses and other stimuli upon white blood cell movement.; This film is likely a product of John Nash Ott's research on the effects of exposure to various wavelengths of light on the pigment epithelial cells in the retina of a rabbit's eye, findings of which Ott published in 1964.
