Studies of cervicovaginal smears for the presence of actinomycetes.

J B Jones, W Kaplan, J M Brown, W White.   

Abstract

Cytologic and direct fluorescent antibody techniques were used to detect the presence of Actinomyces israelii and Arachnia propionica in cervicovaginal smears collected from 100 women, 94 of whom did not use intrauterine contraceptive devices. In no case were these organisms found. The possible significance of these results is discussed.
