Best Answer

B cells

_____

B cells do not "slay" bacteria. B cells produce antibodies that assist the body in dealing with foreign antigens (such as bacteria), but do not directly kill any bacteria.

Neutrophils would likely be considered the primary defense against invading bacteria, followed by macrophages. These two cells types would be considered the primary "bacteria slayers" in the body.
