Abstract:
Chloro and oxytetracycllns and chloramphenicol inhibit oxygen uptake of Vibrio choterae in the presence of a number of substrates belonging to the Kreb's cycle. The inhibition by chloramphenicol is partially reversed by a coenzyme preparation from rabbit liver. The action of anti-tubercular drugs on the same system was confined only to a few substrates of the trlcarboxylic acid cycle.
