Abstract

The changes occurring in mouse mammary gland structure 6 and 12 h. after intramammary inoculation of a virulent strain of Staphylococcus aureus are described using morphometric analysis. At 12 h. after inoculation there was an increase in interacinar tissue, and a decrease in epithelial area and secretory cell area compared with the involution controls. There were also changes in the organelles of the secretory cell in inoculated mice which were consistent with accelerated involution.
