(2002)
PURPOSE:
To determine the effect of prophylactic intravenous imipenem on experimental Staphylococcus aureusendophthalmitis.

The right eyes of 36 New Zealand albino rabbits received an intraocular injection ...
Coagulase-negative staphylococci in normal and chronically inflamed conjunctiva
(University of Nairobi, 1995-12)
This study examines the prevalence of coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species in normal and mildly inflamed conjunctiva, their sensitivity to antibiotics, and their relationship to the remaining flora.
