We studied whether the consolidation whose serum beta-globulin demarcation showed more than 12% was bacterial pneumonia or not. The materials were the patients with fever (> or = 37 degrees C) and the consolidation on chest-X ray film, the value of serum beta-globulin demarcation was more than 12%
Twenty patients complaining of acute dental infection were admitted to the hospital. Clinical examination, peak of daily temperature for every patient were recorded. Electrophoretic studies of plasma proteins of all patients revealed slight increase of mean value of some plasma proteins (albumin,

Markedly increased synthesis of alpha(2) and beta globulins and alpha(1), alpha(2), and beta glycoglobulins occurs during pneumococcal sepsis in the rat simultaneously with decreased albumin formation, diminished tritiated leucine incorporation into muscle protein, and enhanced excretion of
This study was performed to characterise the response of iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu) and selenium (Se) in bacterial-induced porcine acute phase reaction (APR). Twenty piglets were challenged by aerosolic infection with Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (A.pp.) serotype 2, ten piglets serving as
