Effects of Sulfonamides and Azochloramid on Hemolytic Streptococci in Artificial Wounds of Rabbits

Abstract
Expts. were undertaken to determine whether or not sulfanilamide and azoehloramid act synergistically in vivo against Group A hemolytic streptococci in artificial wounds of rabbits. Sulfanilamide, sulfadiazine, and sulfathiazole either caused only a slight decrease in the number of hemolytic streptococci or were ineffective. Azoehloramid, in conc. from 0.26 to 1.3%, was markedly effective. No evidence was obtained that sulfanilamide and azochloramid act synergistically in vivo toward this Group A streptococcus in artificial wounds of rabbits.
