A potent chemotactic activity for neutrophils is detectable in liquid culture filtrates of Blastomyces dermatitidis. The production of this activity is medium-dependent and culture age-dependent. The highest levels of cytotaxin were produced in filtrates of B. dermatitidis grown in tissue culture medium 199 for three or more weeks. This factor(s) stimulates directed as well as random migration. It functions directly and independently of serum. It is stable at -20°C and 56°C, and has a molecular weight greater than 10 000 daltons. These properties define a new microbial chemotactic factor. © 1984 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
