Effects of oxygen and nitrogen on the character of T. pallidum is subcutaneous chambers in mice.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Nitrogen and oxygen gases were injected into mouse subcutaneous chambers which contained virulent Treponema pallidum. The effect of each gas on the viability and survival of T. pallidum in an in vivo system was determined. In comparison with the effects in nontreated control mice, injection of nitrogen enhanced both motility and survival time, but oxygen exerted a deleterious effect.

Cultivation of Treponema pallidum in subcutaneous chambers implanted in golden hamsters.
Treponema pallidum was successfully grown in subcutaneous chambers in golden hamsters. Abnormally long forms of T. pallidum were found in these chambers. The cause of this abnormality may possibly be due to their being coated with antibody which could inhibit cell division or render the organism avirulent or both. T. pallidum was successfully passaged between hamsters but with a possible diminu...

متن کاملInvestigating the Effects of Molecular Oxygen Impurity on the Quadrupole Coupling Constants of Boron Nitride Nanotubes: Computational Studies
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed to investigating the effects of themolecular oxygen impurity on the quadrupole coupling constant (Qcc) parameters of armchair and zigzagboron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs). Optimization processes have been performed to relax the original andimpure structures of the investigated BNNTs. Afterwards, the Qcc parameters have been evaluated...
متن کاملSubcutaneous Hydatid Cyst in Laboratory Mice: Is it a Suitable Method for Evaluating Therapeutic Agents against Hydatid Cyst?
Hydatid disease is an economic and public health concern in many countries. Currently, surgery is the main treatment option for hydatid disease. In the surgical treatment of hydatidosis, the use of scolicidal agents is very important due to inactivating live protoscoleces and preventing the recurrence of infection. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate newscolicidal agents and novel medicat...
