Abstract
SUMMARY: The pictures obtained when extracts of intact bacterial cells are subjected to paper chromatography show some small variations according to the age of the culture. Larger variations occur if a culture is very old. Satisfactory consistency and differentiation of species can be achieved by harvesting cells when, or soon after, the rate of increase of optical density in the cultures begins to decline.Keywords
