PYOGENIC ORGANISMS. Syllabus. Pyogenic Organisms.?Obligate and facultative. Staphylococci; consideration of their varieties and common characteristics. Streptococci.?Identity of those ot pus with those of erysipelas. Comparison of the general characteristics of the two genera and of their peculiar activities. Distinction between erysipelas and allied, yet clinically different forms of cellulitis, etc. Bacillus pyocyaneus.?B. pyogenes fcetidus, etc. Ganococci.?Included here, though not properly belonging heie, since it is doubtful if they are truly pyogenic. Their relations to pus and to purulent mixed infection. Pneumococci and Other Forms.?Bacilli tuberculosis, typhoid bacilli and other organisms rarely met with in pus. Table giving author's statistics of personal work. A FEW years ago the known pyogenic organisms, or those which have the power of provoking the formation of pus by the destruction of exudate, could be counted on one's fingers. But the list now is greatly extended, and the organisms now known to be pyogenic belong to more than one genus, ?belong not even in one kingdom, .since they include both animal and vegetable forms. The former, however, pertain mainly to the lower animals, and man's worst enemies are principally bacteria. While then it would appear to be impossible to give in exact detail the name or biological position of every organism that has the power of producing pus, those subjoined below are by all means the more common forms met with in it. There is every reason to believe that there is not one of the pathogenic microbes which may not have the power, at particular times or under peculiar circumstances, of producing pus, yet there are a limited number of forms which are so invariably met with in it and which so unifo.
