Abstract
In the previous first and second reports, it was described that inoculation of the mixture of carbon black and bacilli has accentuated the development of murine leprosy in whole organs.
In this paper, firstly, an intravenous injection with carbon black was carried in the intraperitoneally inoculated murine leprosy. The dissemination of bacilli into whole organs of animals was not different from control group at all.
In the second experiment, the frequently repeated intraperitoneal injections with carbon black were carried in the subcutaneously inoculated murine leprosy for pursuading a relation between murine leprosy bacilli and function of the reticuloendothelial system. As the results, the marked development of leproma was noticed early in the group. But the dissemination of bacilli into whole organs of murine leprosy was inhibited as compared with control group.
