Abstract
This work was begun in the belief that theBacillus chancri mollis, or Ducrey bacillus, as it is more commonly called, was the most important etilogic factor in the production of chancroids, and that vaccines prepared from this organism might be of value in the treatment of these lesions. With this in view, attempts were made to obtain the organism in pure culture from chancroids seen in the clinic at the Rush Medical College. Up to the present time we have been unsuccessful in this attempt, although we have examined bacteriologically a considerable number of cases and have obtained some results which we believe are worthy of report.Keywords
