Abstract
Solns. of the Na salt of penicillin in concs. recommended for topical application (250 units/ml. of isotonic NaCl) have no damaging effect on the cilia or the epithelium of the respiratory mucosa over periods as long as 27 hrs. Higher concs. of penicillin impede ciliary action.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
