Conclusion

Sulfapyridine and prontosil rubrum possess more potent anti-mycobacterial properties in vitro than sulfanilamide.

The author is greatly indebted to Messrs. May and Baker for the supply of sulfapyridine (M&B 693), and to the I. G. Farbenindustrie A. G. “Bayer” for the supply of prontosil rubrum.
