 strain of Ps. aeruginosa by precipitation with ZnClo, dialysis 

 and acetone precipitation. It was LheatTs^able (100° C,,l hr.) 

 and contained 5.8^ carbohydrates and 11.5^ N, The nucleo- 

 proteln was precipitable with immune rabbit sera in dilutions 

 to 1; 250, 000. It conferred immunity to a homologous strain of

Physiological effects of bacterial polysaccharides upon the cardie 

 vascular and neuromuscular systems 



Federation Proc. 8;93, I949 



In the rabbit injections of polysaccharide ranging from 2 to 25 

 gammas per kg, were administered. At higher dosage levels, dis- 

 turbances of nervous reflexes, convulsions, urination, defecation 

 and vomiting preceded death. In cats, arterial blood pressure 

 fell while venous pressures increased. A loss in autonomic con- 

 trols was seeni the vagus, splanchnic and cardiosympathetlc nerves 

 required increased stimuli after polysaccharide was administered. 

 Decerebratlon was fatal when the drug was administered prior to 

 operation. Intense cardiovascular changes with heart block and 

 dilatation of chambers were seen in the turtle perfused with 

 polysaccharide preparations,
