Blood neutrophils, monocytes
Bone marrow macrophages, monocytes, sinusoidal cells, lining cells
Connective tissue macrophages, monocytes, dendritic cells, histiocytes

Thymus macrophages, monocytes

* These locations offer the best sites for GcMAF administration. The skin by subcutaneous (SC) or intramuscular (IM) injection, the gut by oral administration and the lungs by inhalation using a nebulizer (such as Omron NE-U22V Portable Nebulizer).
