Chemotherapeutic Studies with Ethylhydrocupreine Hydrochloride in Experimental Pneumococcus Pleuritis
1. Solutions of ethylhydrocupreine (optochin) hydrochloride show a pronounced bactericidal activity for pneumococci in pleural pus. 2. The highest tolerated dose of ethylhydrocupreine hydrochloride for guinea pigs by intrapleural injection is about 0.2 to 0.3 cc. of a 1:100 solution per 100 gm. of weight, corresponding to 2 to 3 cc. of solution or 0.02 to 0.03 gm. of the drug per kilo of weight...
متن کاملExperimental Studies on Pneumococcus
The inefficiency of specific sera in the treatment of pneumonia must be attributed in part at least to the lack of exact knowledge of the nature of the infection and the processes whereby the human organism protects itself. To ascertain detailed facts regarding pneumococcus infection one must resort to laboratory animals, none of which so far as is known reacts to such infections in identically...
متن کاملExperimental Studies on Pneumococcus Infections
1. Phagocytosis of pneumococci in vitro runs parallel with phagocytosis in vivo. 2. Virulence depends not only on resistance to phagocytosis, but also on the ability to grow in the body of the animal. 3. The biological reaction of the pigeon to pneumococcus infection does not differ from that of the mouse. 4. The "immunity" of the pigeon to pneumococcus infection is due to its normal high tempe...
متن کاملStudies on Pneumococcus Immunity
1. Active immunity against many lethal doses of Pneumococcus Types I, II, and III may be produced in mice by two or three subcutaneous injections of the homologous type of pneumococcus saline vaccine. 2. Mice may be actively immunized with the protein fraction obtained by treating pneumococci with anhydrous sodium sulfate or by solution of pneumococci in bile salts and precipitation with alcoho...
متن کاملPathology of Experimental Pneumococcus Pneumonia in Mice
1. The administration of alcohol produces no evident histological changes in the lungs of mice. 2. Following inhalations of pneumococci the organisms are not visible histologically in the lungs of mice either in the bronchi or alveoli. 3. In partially immunized mice which have been exposed to a pneumococcus spray while alcoholized, true lobar pneumonia not infrequently develops. 4. The primary ...
