Screening of Isoniazid Inactivators

Leslie Eidus 1, Mary M Hodgkin 1
PMCID: PMC444372  PMID: 4790569

Abstract

A method is described for phenotyping of isoniazid inactivators. After a test dose of isoniazid, free isoniazid and its acetyl derivative are estimated in urine by the same colorimetric reaction.
