AB  - The mode of action of sodium p-aminophenylarsonate (atoxyl) on E. coli appears to be similar to that of sulfonamides, since the same mechanisms of antagonism appear to be involved. The bacteriostatic and trypanocidal activities of m-amino-p-hydroxyphenylarsenoxide, `Mapharsen,&#039; apparently are exerted through a different mechanism than that which is involved in the bacteriostatic action of sulfonamides.
