Abstract
The inhibitory effect of sulfamonomethoxine and other sulfonamides on the capsule formation of sulfonamide-resistant Bordetella bronchiseptica was investigated. All the sulfonamides having MeO(-OCH3) groups inhibited the capsule formation of B. bronchiseptica. Strong inhibition was obtained with sulfamonomethoxine. Inhibition was not seen with sulfonamides having no MeO groups.
