The effect of Oestrogens, Androgens and Progestational Compounds on Some Bacteria in Vitro

Abstract: Summary 1. Synthetic oestrogens (hexoestrol/stilboestrol, hexoestrol and stilboestrol) exert antibacterial effects on Micrococcus pyogenes var. aureus in concentrations ranging from 0.05 to 10 mg./ml. Stilboestrol possesses a very powerful antibacterial action as compared with hexoestrol and hexoestrol/stilboestrol. Natural oestrogens (oestrone, oestradiol and oestradiol dipropionate) in doses of 1, 10 and 100 mg. per ml. neither promote nor reduce growth of M. pyogenes var. aureus significantly. 2. Androgens … Show more
