Abstract excerpt

Acetylator status was determined in 25 kwashiorkor children, aged between 8 months and 3 years and in 25 age-matched control group of healthy children after a single oral dose of sulphamethazine (40 mg/kg body weight) and by measuring the acetylated sulphamethazine in blood samples, collected 6 h after the administration of sulphamethazine. The percentage of slow acetylators among kwashiorkor children was 40%...
