Abstract
First Pyrotherapy Congress in New York (March 1937). 6th meeting. Gonococcus dies at temperatures of 41° and 42°, and it can be killed by natural pyrexia or artificial. The duration of the high temperature can vary within fairly wide limits, for some strains of gonococci die at a temperature of 41.5° within 5 hours, while others remain to live at the same temperature for 23 hours.
