White blood cells use phagocytosis to remove foreign particles from the blood stream. These cells will literally engulf foreign particles that are the same size as itself. There are two types of white blood cells which act as phagocytes: macrophages and polymorphic leucocytes. To be phagocytosed, particles need to bind to the receptors on the phagocyte. Then the particle is engulfed and absorbed.
