Sartorius, F. On the relationship between virulence and fibrinolytic capacity of human pathogenic streptococci (Ztschr. F. Immunitätsf., Bd. 88, 1936)
To clarify the question posed, the author studied the fibrinolytic properties of streptococci isolated from the pharynx of sick people. The results obtained were compared, on the one hand, with the course and severity of the infectious process in which this strain was isolated, and, on the other hand, with the virulence of the latter for experimental animals (mice and rabbits). In total, 89 strains were examined, and it turned out that the ability of streptococci, pathogenic for humans, to dissolve the plasma of the latter, is a persistent property of this microbe, inherent, however, only to single strains. The lytic differences that exist between the plasma of different individuals are due to constitutional properties, and the author considers it established that the plasma of men is more likely and more susceptible to fibrinolysis than the plasma of women.
