Effect of ethanol on the clearance of airborne pneumococci and the rate of pneumococcal transformations in the lung.

F Auerbach-Rubin¹, E Ottolenghi-Nightingale.

Abstract

The rate of clearance of pneumococci from the lungs of mice infected by aerosols was found to vary inversely with the virulence of the pneumococci. Treatment of of the mice with ethanol delayed the clearance and increased the rate of pneumococcal transformations in vivo.
