| Abstract | ||
| The capacity of capsular polysaccharides enable bacteria to resist phagocyte process and help it to dissemination in liver & spleen organs was tested in vivo by measurement of log number of bacteria isolated from these organs in addition to show organ section . Two mice groups was used the first one injected with encapsulated strain, the other one injected with capsule-removed strain The results of this study confirmed the important role of capsule in improvement of the dissemination of encapsulated S. aureus bacteria into some organ of mice which observed by increase in log number of bacteria isolated from liver & spleen through an increase in the time of mice injection and reach maximum at 72h to (4.89) ( 5.32) respectively, but mice groups injected with capsule removed strain reach to (3.16) in liver and (3.78) in spleen at 24h , then decrease of low level in other injection time . Liver section of mice injected with the same encapsulated S. aureus show congestion , hemorrhage combined by PMN cell infiltration in addition to fusion of white pulp in spleen . These pathological changes occur too ,but less severe in mice injected with capsule –removed strain . | ||
