Abstract
A method for the estimation of acetylisoniazid in urine is described. It is simple, sensitive and reliable and follows Beer’s law between 10 μg./ml. and 40 μg./ml. It yields complete recovery of acetylisoniazid from specimens of urine to which the compound has been added in known concentrations. In this procedure, the drug-containing urine itself serves as the blank if the reagents are mixed first and then the urine added. Isoniazid in high concentrations produces a colour reaction in this method. This interference is eliminated by potassium permanganate which destroys isoniazid but not acetylisoniazid under the conditions of the estimation.
