Abstract
Summary
A comparison of mandelamine, streptomycin and sulfathiazole against 8 stock laboratory strains and 9 strains of organisms recently isolated from urinary tract infections indicates that their activities are not widely different.
In contrast to the results obtained with streptomycin and sulfathiazole, resistance to mandelamine either did not appear, or if it did, it appeared slowly and to a questionable degree in 3 organisms, while in 3 other organisms, resistance did not appear at all.
Organisms rendered resistant to sulfathiazde or str, eptomycin remain susceptible to mandelamine.
