Effect of Actinospectacin (trobicin) in Experimental Syphilis in the Rabbit. Ii. in Subclinical Incubating Syphilis.

چکیده
The broad-spectrum antibiotic actinospectacint may have general application in human therapy. Its effectiveness in the treatment of gonorrhoea has been reported by Willcox (1962) and by Laird and Taylor (1962). Earlier studies in this laboratory demonstrated its effect in experimental early lesion syphilis in the rabbit (Clark and Yobs, 1963). Patients with symptomatic gonorrhoea may also have inapparent incubating syphilis. This is a report of the effects of actinospectacin at the dosage level used in gonorrhoea and other human infections in subclinical incubating syphilis in the rabbit.
