Further study of immunity in festering staphylococci
The author has previously found in guinea pigs that leukocytes produce a substance capable of destroying purulent cocci. Since the leukocytes of different animals are not equally sensitive to leukocidin, the author in the present study examined these interrelationships in rabbits. It was first found that the ability of festering staphylococci to cause fatal infection in these animals depends largely on the site of introduction of the microbe into the body. Most often death occurs with intravenous infection, much less often with subcutaneous infection.
