In a study of 6 children with cystic fibrosis receiving intravenous antibiotics for pseudomonas lung infection, serum endotoxin values were monitored by a modification of the limulus lysate technique. The values fell with treatment, reflecting a response that was not always apparent on clinical assessment. Endotoxin concentrations may offer a more precise way of monitoring the effects of antibiotic treatment in CF patients.
在一项针对6名患有囊性纤维化且因铜绿假单胞菌肺部感染接受静脉抗生素治疗的儿童的研究中，通过改良的鲎试剂法监测血清内毒素值。这些值随着治疗而下降，这反映出一种在临床评估中并不总是明显的反应。内毒素浓度可能为监测囊性纤维化患者抗生素治疗效果提供一种更精确的方法。
