Abstract
A case of presumptive anaerobic infection in a [human] neonate is described to illustrate the use of GLC in the early detection of these potentially serious pathogens. Metronidazole is suggested as a possibly useful antimicrobial agent in these infections.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
