Pus
Definition:
(a.) The yellowish white opaque creamy matter produced by the process of suppuration. It consists of innumerable white nucleated cells floating in a clear liquid.
Example Sentences:
(1) It is concluded that ultrasonography, 67Ga scanning, and CT each have significant limits in diagnosing intra-abdominal pus.
(2) It is important that the nurse recognize when pus is a major factor in an unhealed wound and initiate local care to assist in cleaning the wound bed.
(3) Confirmation of diagnosis was established by exteriorization of pus with US, CT or during surgery.
(4) We isolated a strain of P. penneri from the pus of a patient with suppurative otitis media and an epidural abscess on June 10 and 15, 1989.

(12) When distribution of these organisms were classified depending on clinical materials from which they were isolated, outpatient sources from which S. aureus were isolated at high frequencies were otorrhea and pus, while inpatient sources with high incidents of S. aureus isolation were sputum and pus.
(13) No viability loss of B. fragilis was noted when pus was stored at 25 degrees C. Only slight loss of viaability of B. fragilis was observed at 15 degrees C. Escherichia coli coexisting in pus with B. fragilis increased several 100fold in 24 h when stored at 25 degrees C, but no significant growth occurred when they were kept at 15 degrees C. Approximately 20 to 40% of E. coli lost their viability when such pus was stored at 4 degrees C.
