Abstract:
The concentration of plasma eadotoxin and serum C-reactive protein(CRP) were measured in 48 cases with leukemia.Plasma endotoxin was apparently higher in 9 cases with gram-negative bacterial infection than those with other organisms infection.The serum CRP concentration was strongly positive in patients with leukemia complicated by bacterial infection.It is suggested that measurement of plasma endotoxin and serum CRP would aid the diagnosis of G- bacterial infection in patients with leukemia
