Summary
In experiments on rats, it was established that treatment of focal staphylococcal infection by penicillin brings about quick recovery and normalization of higher nervous activity if the latter had no additional disturbance. However, if function of the higher nervous activity was seriously disrupted penicillin therapy of staphylococcal infection was almost ineffective.
