Bacterial interactions with human respiratory mucosa in vitro

1995-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The theme of this thesis is to study the interactions of non-typable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) with intact human respiratory mucosa in vitro. Recent evidence suggests that bacteria are mainly associated with respiratory mucus during exacerbation of chronic bronchitis but penetration of antibiotics into respiratory mucus is generally poor. A study was therefore performed to evalu...
