title: Antibacterial activity of murine spleen cell extract.
abstract: Exposure to a peptide extract from murine spleen reduced the viable count of E. coli and E. coli spheroplasts. The reduction in viable count was reflected by reduced incorporation of radiolabelled thymidine and was apparently due to a loss of the ability of treated ogranisms to divide.
