CORNEAL ULCERATION WITH Ps. PYOCYANEA.
DEAR SIRS-Two recent articles by Klein and Millwood (1952, 1953) have prompted me to make a few comments on some eight cases of corneal ulceration with the Ps. pyocyanea which I have seen since an article by Bignell appeared in 1951. Of the eight cases, six had a simple corneal foreign body removed, and in these the cornea became infiltrated round the former site of the foreign body within 48 h...
متن کاملChloramphenicol applied in calcium alginate caps for the control of experimental corneal infection with Ps. pyocyanea.
(i) ease of penetration into the ocular tissues, (ii) toxicity for ocular tissues, (iii) effectiveness against standard experimental ocular infections, (iv) effectiveness against clinical ocular infections. The penetration of chloramphenicol was investigated by Leopold, Nichols, and Vogel (1950), who found that by using it as eyedrops in aqueous solution or in propylene glycol, or as an eye oin...
متن کاملTreatment of corneal infection with ps. pyocyanea by subconjunctival injection of polymyxin E.
THE properties of polymyxin in relation to ocular therapeutics have recently been discussed at some length ; the penetration of this antibiotic into the eye of the rabbit after subconjunctival injection was estimated and the results obtained in the treatment of corneal infection experimentally produced with Ps. pyocyanea have been reported (Ainslie and Smith, 1951). It is well known that this t...
متن کاملControl of experimental corneal infection with medicated semi-solid contact cap and disk; infection with Ps. pyocyanea treated with streptomycin.
MULES (1894) wrote that where " the action of micro-organisms on an abraded surface may cause or is causing destructive changes " the indications would be to remove the irritating elements and allow the natural process of repair to heal the breach of surface ". He sought to achieve this by placing a gelatine wafer impregnated with iodoform on the corneal surface and keeping the eye bandaged. He...
متن کاملImproved Culture Methods for the Detection of Ps. pyocyanea.
Williams, Clayton-Cooper, Faulkner, and Thomas (1944) drew attention to the fact that Pseudomonas pyocyanea may survive and even multiply in solutions of cetrimide (cetyl-trimethyl-ammonium-bromide). The use of this compound in selective media for the identification of Ps. pyocyanea was suggested by Harper and Cawston (1945), who recommended a concentration of 1 % in nutrient agar. This medium,...
