Abstract
Conclusions
Under the conditions of the experiment, sulfapyridine in concentrations of 1-1000 and 1-2000 allows no growth of human tubercle bacilli. At the end of 3 to 4 weeks of incubation, the floats from these concentrations do not grow when planted on suitable media. Sulfapyridine in concentrations of 1-4000 definitely retards the growth of human tubercle bacilli. Sulfapyridine in concentrations of 1-6000 and 1-10,000 affects little, or not at all, the growth of the organism.
We wish to express our appreciation to Dr. S. A. Petroff for his valuable advice.
