Abstract
Three groups of six rats were used. The first was iniected promin subcutaneously, the second through veins and the rest was a control group. Injections were administered 48 tunes and observation was for 4 months. Both subcutaneous and intravenous injections could not suppress the disease and produced no difference of lepromata in size. But it was interesting that the intraveneous group showed no or very slight lesion on skin. In short, protomin has not so remarkable an effect on murine leprosy as on human leprosy.
