STUDIES ON THE ASSAY METHOD OF MICROBIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE CONCENTRATIONS IN THE S ENSITIVITY TEST MEDIA FOR ANTITUBERCULOUS AGENTS (IInd Rep ort)

Abstract

In the previous report, we described an agar plate diffusion method using rapidly growing TMycobacteria as test organisms, to evaluate microbiologically active concentrations in the sensitivity test media for antituberculous agents. The present study demonstrates an applicability of the method to recently introduced antituberculous agents such as rifampicin and prothionamide.
