Abstract

Taurolin, a broad spectrum bactericidal agent, protected experimental animals from the lethal effects of Escherichia coli and Bacteroides fragilis endotoxin. Taurolin also prevented the pyrexic response of rabbits to TAB vaccine. Results suggest that Taurolin exerts its antiendotoxic effect by direct reaction with the endotoxin molecule.
