Abstract
The response in mice to infection with various doses of strain JST of alpha type streptococcus is highly uniform when measured in terms of mortality plus incidence of arthritis. 5-7 days of treatment with cortisone acetate in doses of 0.015 g./kg. and above produce statistically significant increases in incidence of mortality plus arthritis produced by this organism in mice.Keywords
