Abstract
Our results suggest that: (1) local injection of sub-bactericidal doses of protamine sulfate reduces the virulence of P. aeruginosa; (2) this effect is due to interference with the systemic rather than local spread of P. aeruginosa; and (3) local application of protamine sulfate may have potential as supportive therapy for prevention of systemic P. aeruginosa infection in severely burned patients.
