THE EFFECT OF ANTIBIOTICS ON THE INFLAMMATORY PROCESS IN IRRADIATED ANIMALS (in Russian)
At the acute period of radiation sickness even a single massive dose of antibiotics may prevent the development of bacteremia and necrotic-hemorrhagic changes in places of microbe introduction, in case of an infection on the background of previously administered streptomycin or penicillin. However, in such inflammatory foci live microbes may be present for a long time. Numerous (for 5 days) intramuscular introduction of streptomycin almost completely destroys the microbes in inflammatory foci infected in 15 minutes following the first injection of the antibiotic. In intramuscular administration of streptomycin to irradiated and non-irradiated rabbits, the drop of the concentration of the antibiotic in the blood was in dependence to the dose introduced. (auth)
