Mice which die are autopsied and cultures are taken from heart blood, the survivors are observed for a period of 2 weeks.
For such use, the presently disclosed compounds are formulated, using conventional inert pharmaceutical adjuvant materials, into dosage forms which are suitable for oral or parenteral administration. Such dosage forms include tablets, suspensions, solutions, etc. Furthermore, the compounds of this invention can be embodied into, and administered in the form of, suitable hard or soft capsules.
