<p>This is either by oxygen dependant pathways of oxygen independent pathways.</p>

<p>This occurs using either oxygen dependant pathways or oxygen independent pathways.</p>

<p>Oxygen dependant killing requires the productions of reactive oxygen species that damage bacterial membranes. These species are generated during a burst of respiration following phagocytosis were increased amount of oxygen are used. Hydrochloric acid is also produced during this process.</p>

<p>Oxygen dependant killing requires the production of reactive oxygen atoms that damage bacterial membranes. These atoms are generated during a burst of respiration following phagocytosis where increased amounts of oxygen are produced. Hydrochloric acid is also produced during this process.</p>

<p>Oxygen independent killing uses lysosomes, cathepsin (a protease) and other mechanisms. Lysozymes are particularly effective against gram positive bacteria as they hydrolyse the glycopeptides coats of the bacteria.</p>
