Abstract
On a model of experimental pneumonia in mice caused by the L-forms of bacteria
against the background of diminished immunity a study was made of the therapeutic
efficacy of penicillin, lincomycin, lysozyme and gamma-globulin. Lincomycin,
particularly in combination with biologically-active preparations, proved to be
expedience for the treatment and prophylaxis of pneumonia caused by the mentioned
bacteria; a rapid arrest of pneumonic process occurred and more animals survived. In
the greater percentage of cases the use of penicillin was accompanied by generalization
of the process.
