To better understand the mechanism of leukocyte migration in complex environments, model extracellular matrices were prepared using gelatin, Hanks' solution, Bodipy-BSA (fluorescent upon proteolysis), and dihydrotetramethylrosamine or hydroethidine (fluorescent upon oxidation). Using quantitative microfluorometry, neutrophil-mediated extracellular pulses of reactive oxygen metabolites (ROMs) an...
