It is known that Emmerich and Lw showed by their studies that a special substance, pyocyanase, capable not only of stopping the growth of this bacillus but also of causing lysis of other microbes, is formed in a 3-4-week-old broth culture of Pseudomonas bacillus. These studies initiated attempts to use pyocyanase for therapeutic purposes in a number of infectious diseases, including gonorrhea. The authors set out to test the therapeutic value of the lysovaccine in the treatment of gonorrheal diseases.</p>Kazan Medical archiveКазанский медицинский архив
