Inside the human body, a particular type of white blood cell called a macrophage will engulf and digest bacteria.
White blood cells use a process called phagocytosis to engulf and destroy bacteria. During phagocytosis, the white blood cell extends its pseudopodia around the bacteria, forming a phagosome that contains the invader. The phagosome then merges with lysosomes to form a phagolysosome, where enzymes break down the bacteria.
There are two types of white blood cell. The kind which secrete antibodies to kill microbes are called lymphocytes. The other type, which engulf microorganisms, are called phagocytes.*Specifically, the type of lymphocyte (white blood cell) that produces antibodies would be plasma cells. After a B cell (a type of lymphocyte) undergoes clonal selection, the result is the formation of a clone of B cells that consists of plasma cells and memory B cells. Plasma cells secrete antibodies and memory B cells do not secrete antibodies.

White blood cells called neutrophils are specialists in killing invading bacteria. They engulf and destroy the bacteria by releasing toxic chemicals and enzymes. This process is known as phagocytosis.
Antibodies are produced by a type of white blood cell called B lymphocytes, also known as B cells. These cells are a key part of the immune system and play a crucial role in helping the body defend against infections by producing antibodies that can neutralize pathogens.
