title: A new bioassay for terbinafine.
abstract: A simple, sensitive and specific agar diffusion bioassay for the antifungal agent terbinafine is described. Using a strain of Aspergillus flavus as the test organism, terbinafine at concentrations ranging from 0.2 microgram/ml to 6.4 micrograms/ml could be measured in serum.
