Contraindication for Use of Serratia marcescens as Tracer Organisms in Research

Abstract

SYNOPSIS IN INTERLINGUA

CONTRAINDICATIONES CONTRA LE USO DE SERRATIA MARCESCENS COMO ORGANISMO-TRACIATOR IN LE RECERCA.-Es presentate un breve historia del organismo e del derivation de su nomine. Certe altere designationes ha essite usate, sed le autor se refere al Manual de Bacteriologia Determinative de Bergey. Un revista del litteratura medical e bacteriologic provide le base pro le demonstration del pathogenicitate potential de iste organismo que esseva generalmente considerate como non-pathogenic. Su resistentia contra pharmacos del familia sulfa e contra le majoritate del antibioticos servi additionalmente a render questionabile su utilisation in recercas a aerosol, como ha essite e es ancora le caso.
