Abstract
The in vitro effects of acetohydroxamic acid (AHA), a potent urease inhibitor, were studied to determine the effect on the urease activity and growth of 38 strains of Helicobacter pylori. AHA in concentrations of 50-1000 mg/l had a noticeably reversible inhibitory effect on the urease activity of the organism but no effect on growth.
