| Popis: | When a suspension of living Corynebacterium ovis was injected intradermally in guinea-pigs, a lesion of roughly circular outline developed within 24 hr. Lesions of smaller diameter arose if benzylpenicillin, dequalinium, hedaquinium, cetrimide, or oxytetracycline were injected at the identical site, either before, with, or after C. ovis. Evidence has been obtained that such reductions of lesion diameter are due to direct action of drugs on bacteria and not to antitoxic or anti-inflammatory actions. Lesion diameters became less as drug dosage increased up to a limit, and these reductions provided a measure of local antibacterial action in vivo. Intradermal injection of higher concentrations of antibacterials, without C. ovis, produced comparable but somewhat flatter lesions, diameters of which increased with increasing concentration of drug and provided a measure of intradermal toxicity. |
