[Experimental chemotherapeutic activity of sisomycin sulfate]

The chemotherapeutic activity of sisomicin was studied in comparison to that of gentamicin with respect to the experimental infection caused by grampositive and gram-negative organisms in albino mice. It was shown that sisomicin was 2-3 times more effective than gentamicin. The higher chemotherapeutic activity of sisomicin was confirmed by the data on the pathogen isolation from the animals.
