Effect of Diuresis on Staphylococcus aureus Kidney Infections in Mice

Abstract: In the Cornett strain of mice, water diuresis did not prevent hematogenous production of pyelonephritis by Staphylococcus aureus . Increased fluid intake did not affect the numbers of organisms deposited in the kidneys or the rate of growth during the first 4 hr after inoculation. Drinking the glucose solution did not enhance bacterial proliferation within the renal parenchyma. Subcutaneous injection of saline to supplement for interruption of drinking after inoculation reduced the numb… Show more

“…Surviving mice were sacrificed, and the kidneys and spleen were removed, homogenized, and quantitatively analyzed for streptococci by direct surface plating on blood agar plates. Short-term in vivo growth studies were carried out as previously described (9), with blood, spleen, and kidney tissues analyzed for bacteria at the indicated times. The blood specimens were obtained by orbital sinus bleedings before sacrifice.…”
