It is now possible to microinject protein to probe specific biochemical pathways and/or cell functions in small cells such as human neutrophils (Bird et al. J.Anat.198, 2001). We have shown that these cells retain their ability to modify their F‐actin cytoskeleton following the microinjection procedure. The principal task of neutrophils is to hunt and kill bacteria by responding to chemotactic gradients which cause them to extend actin rich pseudopodia in the direction of the highest concentration of these molecules. On reaching their target the neutrophils make tight contact with the bacteria
