During the last 10 years, reinfusion of UV-irradiated blood has been rediscovered again as a therapeutic method suitable in the treatment of a variety of diseases. The described series of model experiments on rabbits confirm its beneficial effects in the treatment of staphylococcal infection: the control animals reinfused blood not exposed to UV radiation died all within 48 hours after injected with a suspension of live Staphylococcus aureus culture; all rabbits reinfused UV-irradiated blood (2 ml per kg body weight) survived the whole period of observation (30 days); reinfusion of UV-irradiated blood in a volume reduced to 1 ml.kg-1 body weight prolonged the animals' life-span to 96 or 120 hours.
