چکیده
j Uch has been learned about the behaviour of the microbes that cause Section in hospitals and this epidemiological knowledge has helped to reduce Joss-infection by organisms from outside the patient. Thus, for example, ^vances have been made in preventing airborne infection in operating eatres and in excluding extraneous bacteria from surgical wounds, from abies' skin, and from the urinary tract (Report, 1968). However, this proI fs in methods of controlling the organisms underlines our ignorance and influ ProSress t^ie resistance ?f the patient and the factors that
