Specific impairment of host defense for pseudomonas infection in mice by a burn toxin derived from thermally altered human skin

Abstract: Summary. The mortality rate for an infection with standardized increasing amounts of a characterized strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been established.In these experiments, 1 × 10 T organisms, causing a reproducible mortality rate of 0--20~o in normal control animals, were used. The mortality of mice due to this standardized pseudomonas infection was significantly increased by preinjection of an otherwise sublethal dose of a specific burn toxin 72 hrs before the organisms were applied in a standard wound p… Show more
