Type A Cl. perfringens toxin caused necrosis in guniea-pigs and killed mice. Sodium nucleinate, administered orally to these animals simultaneously with the injection of the toxin and 2 hours later significantly prevented dermonecrosis in guinea-pigs and death in mice, as well as the development of pathomorphological changes in the liver, the kidneys and the spleen, the fatty degeneration of hepatocytes and disturbances in nucleic acid metabolism in these cells.
