Abstract: | Summary In cortisone-treated rats, in addition to the observation of heavy bacterial infections and pneumocystosis in almost all animals, numerous fungus species were isolated from the lung tissue in 75 percent of the animals.The luxurious bacterial and fungus flora in rats with artificial pneumocystosis (cortisone-treated) constitutes a serious obstacle in the attempts to growPneumocystis.This work was supported in part by Grant E 576 from the National Institute of Health. |
