Lethal effect of polymyxin B sulfate in experimental Proteus rettgeri infection in mice.

Abstract:

:The mouse model of intraperitoneal sepsis with Proteus rettgeri was used to evaluate the anti-endotoxic effect of polymyxin B sulfate. An unexpected reversal of the usual protective effect of polymyxin in experimental enterobacterial sepsis was observed in which the lethality of the infection was enhanced.

  • Development of the cellulolytic microflora in the rumen of lambs transferred into sterile isolators a few days after birth.

    abstract::Seven lambs, separated from their dam 24 h after birth, were kept in a conventional environment until transferred to sterile isolators between 1 and 9 days of age: two on day 1 (IA and IB), two on day 4 (IVA and IVB), one on day 8 (VIIIA), and two on day 9 (IXA and IXB). The lambs were reared in these isolators until ...
