It is the most common micro-organism on thesurface of the body, and is often present in parts of the epidermis toodeep for disinfection, save by heat. It is supposed to be the usual causeof stitch-abscess. 4. Streptococcus Pyogenes. It is found in acute abscesses, erysipelas,otitis media, puerperal metritis, infectious endocarditis, pseudodiphtheria,scarlatinal angina, and most purulent inflammations of a phlegmonouscharacter. It is the organism most commonly found in inflammationshaving a spreading tendency. Fig. Streptucuccuf pyogenes in pus. X 800. () Morphology. Cover-glass preparations show spherical cocci of varyingsizes, which form chains of 4 to 20 elements, the chains often formingtangled masses. This organism is stained basic anilines or byGrams method. (See Fig. 276.) Inoculated, it causes erysipelatous or phlegmonous inflammation. PLATE XIIl-c. FIG. 1. FIG. 2.
