title: Antimicrobial activity of 5-substituted-3-amino-1,2,4-triazoles.
abstract: Some dyes derived from 3-amino-5-(ortho, meta, and para-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazoles were tested for antimicrobial activity. 13 compounds showed anti-staphylococcal activity and one had anti-candida activity. Some substances had antimicrobial activity only after light irradiation.
