title: Remarks on the structure-activity relationship of silver sulfanilamides.
abstract: The biological activity of a series of 10 silver sulfanilamides is studied in relation to the physical parameters pK alpha, log K, and the aqueous solubility. None of the parameters demonstrate a simple relationship with the activity. A discussion of the significance of log K and the solubility in relation to the activity is given.
