ABSTRACT
A surgical lubricant containing phenylmercuric borate, tested in vitro, was shown to alter the recovery of the gonococcus. In vivo studies of 150 patients, 60 (40%) of whom were infected with Neisseria gonorrhoeae, were performed to determine if examination with the surgical lubricant, as compared to tap water, altered the ability to recover N. gonorrhoeae from the cervix. Results indicated that although the surgical lubricant containing phenylmercuric borate was bacteriostatic in vitro, it did not alter the recovery of N. gonorrhoese from infected patients.
