Les pyrogènes sont des impuretés qui, dans un soluté administré par voie veineuse, engendrent une réaction fébrile. Les préparations modernes de qualité en sont soigneusement débarrassées : on les dit en anglais «pyrogen free», ce qui peut se traduire par «dépourvu de substances pyrogènes». 2, record 6, French, - vapeur%20d%C3%A9pourvue%20de%20substances%20pyrog%C3%A8nes
