Ozone effect on morphology erythrocytes and leukocytes in whole blood in vitro
Keywords:
Ozone effect, erythrocytes, leukocytes, in vitro, morphological changes in blood cellsAbstract
Clinical studies showed gas ozone use is safe; the blood cells can enzymatically control a certain number of antioxidant molecules; in low concentrations, these mechanisms can be triggered, turned on, and stimulated by other leukocyte mechanisms of defense. To observe the effect of ozone on blood erythrocytes and white blood cells when are exposed to therapeutic doses of ozone at concentrations (20, 40, 60, and 90 µL/mL) in volunteer subjects. Blood samples were exposed to concentrations of ozone (20, 40, 60, and 90 µl/mL), evaluated in a hematometer, and blood stains. An alteration in the morphology of leukocyte and erythrocyte cells was observed in blood samples of all concentrations, with statistical significance for neutrophils and monocytes. Ozone in blood in vitro causes a morphological affectation of erythrocytes, monocytes and neutrophils
