Microbiology of bruised tissue.

C O Gill, N Penney
PMCID: PMC291266  PMID: 230787

Abstract

No significant differences could be found in the microbial quality of bruised and unbruised tissue provided that the two types of tissue were treated identically. This suggests that there is no good reason for the condemnation of bruised tissue, which could well be used in manufactured products.
