Some of the cytochemical characteristics of viscous purulent sputum are described, deoxy-ribonucleoprotein fibrils being an important constituent. Treatment of such sputum with deoxyribonuclease, an enzyme isolated from ox pancreas, reduced the number of these fibrils and made the sputum less viscous. A method of spray inhalation of this enzyme is described for patients with chronic chest infection. Clinical benefit was obtained with repeated inhalations containing 5 mg. of deoxyribonuclease a day. No toxic or anaphylactic reaction was encountered in the clinical studies.
