Abstract
Goat blood, when incubated for different periods with diloxanide furoate, metronidazole and emetine hydrochloride, underwent changes in fatty acid constituents and their peroxidation products measured as malonaldehyde. These findings, together with the changes noted in the drug-lipid partition coefficient, are discussed in an attempt to correlate the lipid constitution and biological activity of the drugs.
