| discrepancy between results of the streptozyme test and those of the antideoxyribonulcease b and antihyaluronidase tests. | comparison of the serum titers obtained with the streptozyme, the antistreptolysin o, the antideoxyribonuclease b, and the antistreptohyaluronidase tests suggested that the streptozyme test had failed to detect antibodies against streptococcal deoxyribonuclease b and hyaluronidase. moreover, sera that were negative in the streptozyme test could be shown by immunodiffusion to possess significant numbers of precipitins against extracellular factors produced by group a streptococci. follow-up studi ... | 1978 | 97311 |

| effects of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid-4 sodium solution on the surface of renal calculi and the uroepithelium. | tetrasodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid is one of the most effective agents that dissolve renal calculi, especially calculi containing calcium. to study the dissolving process of calculi in solutions, with or without trypsin, serial thin sections of renal calculi composed of calcium oxalate and/or phosphate were prepared and observed by polarizing microscopy. the effects of the solution on the surface of human renal calculi and rat uroepithelium also were studied by scanning electron microsc ... | 1978 | 97399 |

| isolation care of infection-prone burn patients. | an experimental and clinical study of spread of colonisation between burn patients, and their susceptibility to infection, was performed. burn patients' polymorphonuclear neutrophil granulocytes (pmn) functioned poorly, particularly during the second week after injury which coincided with maximum growth of bacteria in the burn wound. patients with large burns often dispersed s. aureus and ps. aeruginosa but also beta-hemolytic streptococcus to the air of their rooms. airborne transfer of these b ... | 1978 | 97776 |

| infection in acute leukemia patients receiving oral nonabsorable antibiotics. | during a 20-month period all acute nonlymphocytic patients (87 patient trials) receiving cytotoxic chemotherapy were placed on an oral nonabsorbable antibiotic regimen consisting of gentamicin, vancomycin, and nystatin in addition to an intensive program of infection prevention aimed at reducing exogenously acquired and body-surface potential pathogens. although side effects of anorexia, diarrhea, and nausea were common, gentamicin-vancomycin-nystatin was ingested 80% of the study time. microbia ... | 1978 | 98107 |

| pleiotropic effect of a rifampin-resistant mutation in bacillus subtilis. | rifampin-resistant (rifr) mutants were isolated spontaneously from bacillus subtilis strain 168. a fraction of the mutants did not grow on a minimal medium. a high concentration of one of the l-amino acids (glutamic acid, glutamine, arginine, proline, aspartic acid, or asparagine) was required to restore their growth on the medium. further analysis of one of the mutants (strain rf 161) suggested that the mutant is unable to use ammonia as a nitrogen source and requires amino acids instead. activ ... | 1978 | 98517 |
