Abstract

The in-vitro activity of sucralfate (sucrose octa-sulphate) in suspension was examined against 128 strains of Gram-negative bacilli. Inhibitory activity was demonstrated against all isolates and bactericidal activity was demonstrated for 68. Sucralfate has inhibitory and bactericidal antibacterial activity which may contribute to its in-vivo clinical efficacy.
