Proc. Soc. Exper. Biol. Med. 35:297, 1936 



The pyrogenic substance found in infusion fluids is of a parti- 

 culate nature, with a diameter somewhat larger than 50 milli- 

 microns.

Effect of certain bacterial products upon the growth of mouse 

 tumor 



Pub. Health Rept. 51:56, 1936 



A small gram-negative bacillus was Isolated as a contaminant 

 of mouse sarcoma I80 tissue cultures. When injected intraven- 

 ously into mice bearing sarcoma I80 growths, tumor regression 

 appeared in 20 per cent of the animals, and hemorrhage and ne- 

 crosis in 28 per cent. However, mortality reached 45 per cent 

 and the use of immune sera did not alter the mortality rate. 

 An alcohol preclpitable fraction was prepared which, on in- 

 jection, produced complete tumor regression in 42 per cent of the 

 mice, and necrotic changes in 22 per cent. Mortality was 

 reduced to 33 per cent. Addition of bacterial vaccine or this 

 fraction inhibited in vitro tissue cultures of sarcoma I80 but 

 did not injure normal tissues.

II trattaraento ipertermico con 'pyrifer' nella terapia della 

 schizofrenie e della demenza paralytica (Hyperthermic treatment 

 with 'pyrifer' in therapy of schizophrenia and paralytic 

 dementia) 



Arch, gen. di, neurol., psichiat. e psichoanal. 17:223-246, 1936 



Two patients were cured and one notably improved after injections 

 of a bacterial protein secured from a nonpathogenic strain of 

 Bo coli . Temporary remissions of hebephrenic behavior followed 

 therapy in two other instances. Three failures are reported. 

 Malarial and sulfur injections were ineffective in these 

 conditions ,
