چکیده
to an Enteric Depot for bacteriological examination, those found to be chronic carriers being invalided out of the service. In England the Public Health Authorities have certain powers to enable them to deal with carriers and to prevent thenengaging in occupations in which they may be a source of danger. It is the chronic carrier by whom these diseases are perpetuated. The temporary convalescent carrier is of less importance because he comparatively quickly ceases to excrete the bacilli, whereas the chronic carrier continues to do so for years and frequently for the rest of his life. I think it will be generally agreed that if the chronic carrier could be eliminated, enteric and paratyphoid fevers would cease to exist.

Use of Penicillin in Rat and Human Leprosy *This paper was read before the Indian Science Congress Session held at Bangalore in January 1946.

Three white rats, each weighing about 100 grammes, were inoculated intraperitoneally with 0.5 c.cm. of fresh rat leprosy material. A subcutaneous injection with 0.5 c.cm. of the material was also given in the groin at the same time. From ...

Several techniques have been proposed to prevent hypotension in obstetric patients.
