Septilin in Infective Dermatoses

چکیده
INTRODUCTION Septilin is an Ayurvedic preparation which contains antibacterial and anti-inflammatory principles. Septilin has been reported to stimulate phagocytosis. Cahu and Hirsh (1960) demonstrated the presence of an antibacterial protein (phagocytin) in the cytoplasmic granules of polymorphs. This protein of polymorphs has an antibacterial effect on both gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. Given orally Septilin has been shown to inhibit the growth of Staphylococci, Streptococci, Pneumococci, Micrococcus-catarrhalis, Neisseria catarrhalis, H. influenzae, Diphtheroids and Klebsiella.
