ANTITUBERCULOUS ACTIVITY IN MICE OF TRITON A-20, A NONIONIC ALKYL-ARYL POLYETHER ALCOHOL, USED ALONE AND IN COMBINATION WITH DIHYDROSTREPTOMYCIN

Abstract

Triton A-20 was tested for antituberculous activity in mice, both alone and in combination with dihydrostreptomycin. Triton A-20 alone was approx. 1/6 as active as dihydrostreptomycin; when the 2 agents were used together, a synergistic effect was noted.[long dash].
