Abstract
Summary and Conclusions
Sulfathiazole and sulfamethylthiazole, administered as 1% of the diet showed a distinct and equal therapeutic value in prolonging the lives of mice heavily infected with Staphylococcus aureus. Sulfathiazole proved to be somewhat more efficient in this respect than sulfapyridine.
We are indebted to E. R. Squibb and Sons and the Calco Chemical Division of the American Cyanamid Company for the sulfathiazole used in these experiments, and to the Department of Medical Research of the Winthrop Chemical Company for the sulfamethylthiazole.
