[Experimental study of combined staphylococcal, streptococcal and adenovirus infections in tissue culture].

Associated adenoviral, staphylococcus, and streptococcus infection was studied in the cultures of cells HEp-2 and PAO.

In double and triple associated infections staphylococci overcame the inhibitory action of the cell culture.
