  1. Abstract:

    Twenty-nine of 34 (85%) Zn-finger-active compounds at 300 mu M or less inhibited the growth of Giardia lamblia. The most active compound, disulfiram (Antabuse), was cidal at 1.23 +/- 0.32 mu M. In the adult mouse model, significant in vivo activity was demonstrated by increased cure rates and decreased parasite burdens. [References: 31]
