ANTIBACTERIAL COMPOSITION

摘要

PURPOSE:To provide the titled composition containing sulfonamide and chitosan or its salt. CONSTITUTION:An antibacterial composition can be prepared by combining a sulfonamide (e.g. sulfamethoxazole) with chitosan [a substance obtained by deacetylating chitin (polysaccharide of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine) existing in the crust of crab, shrimp, etc. in an alkaline aqueous solution (e.g. NaOH solution)]. The ratio of both components is arbitrarily selected according to the use. An excellent synergistic effect can be attained by the combination of both components.
