Increased Susceptibility

Mice were inoculated by mouth at different times (2 hours, 5 days, and 11 days) after a single exposure to 550 r total body x-irradiation. The inocula contained approximately 107 Pseudomonas aeruginosa which was found to be quite harmless for unirradiated mice. Comparison of the cumulative mortality curves and of the incidence of Pseudomonas bacteremia showed their susceptibility to infection by this route to be greatest on the 11th day, somewhat less on the 5th day post irradiation, and least of all directly after irradiation. Since damage to the intestinal mucosa has been found to be maximal within the first few hours after exposure to doses of x-irradiation in this range, it seems reasonable to conclude that the increased susceptibility is not due to increased permeability of the mucosa of the gut, but to impairment of the animal's natural defenses against infection.

Infusions of 2.7 g/100 ml sodium chloride or 30 g/100 ml disaccharide solutions into the maternal circulation of pregnant rhesus monkeys produced a significant reduction in fetal and placental total water content. At the same time large transplacental total solute concentration gradients were produced. The injection of sucrose into the amniotic fluid of pregnant rhesus monkeys produced a reduction in fetal total body water alone. The significance of these differences is discussed.
