[Fibrinogen level and fibrinolytic activity of plasma euglobulins from rabbits infected with different types of Salmonella (author's transl)].

In 84 rabbits, fibrinogen behaviour and fibrinolytic activity of the plasma euglobulins were evaluated in the course of experimental salmonellosis caused by S. typhimurium, S. choleraesuis, and S. agona. 10 healthy animals with pseudoinfection served as controls. Disturbances of hemostasis expressed by a use of the fibrinogen level and inhibition of plasma-euglobulin fibrinolysis were established. An analysis of these changes and evaluation of the lethality among the animals used in the experiment revealed that the course of the disease is depending, inter alia, upon the type of Salmonella involved.

[Activity of lysozymes in blood serum of rabbits with experimental salmonellosis (Salmonella agona) (author's transl)].

The authors have analysed the influence of experimental infection of rabbits with Salmonella agona on lysozyme activity in the blood serum of examined animals. 37 rabbits were used in the experiments; experimental salmonellosis was developed in 22 out of this number, the remaining ones (15 rabbits) served as controls A statistically significant increase of lysozyme activity has been found in the serum of sick animals in the acute stage of the disease. A significantly high activity of this enzyme was observed in the diluted blood serum of experimental animals. No correlation was founds between the number of leucocytes and the percentage of granulocytes, and the lysozyme activity.
