Simulation of μg-phases of a parabolic flight by a clinorotation profile and influence on the ROS production visualized by luminol kinetics in the PMT clinostat. Cells were activated by opsonized zymosan stimulation beforehand. Luminescence was measured in counts per second (CPS). Blue, ROS production by cells subjected to the parabolic flight simulation (PF profile); red, ROS production by cells subjected to 1 g (no rotation profile); grey, rotation profile in rounds per minute (rpm).
