Abstract:
Fecal peritonitis was produced by a sphincter-system leading to intestinal perforation. In 10 beagle dogs endotoxin was measured with the Limulus test. There was a correlation between endotoxin appearance and microbiological findings in the peritoneal cavity and in the blood. Endotoxinaemia correlated with the clinical severity of peritonitis.
