Studies on the Enzymes of Pneumococcus: IV. Bacteriolytic Enzyme
Description:
Avery described the four studies written with Cullen, of which this is the last, as clinically important because of the light they shed on "certain of the blood changes which occur in pneumococcal infections in man." In this article, Avery and Cullen presented the results of their research on the nature and action of an intracellular enzyme of pneumococcus that destroyed bacteria.
