Abstract
A fungus provisionally identified as Trichosporon cerebriforme grew in 1, 1.5, 2, and 2.5 [image]H2SO4 fortified with the addition of 0.1% glucose and 0.1% peptone. Another isolate of the same sp. and an unidentified mold grew at normalities of 1, 1.5, and 2. Both isolates of T. cerebriforme grew in a soln. of 280 g. CuSO4.5H2O, 1 g. glucose, and 1 g. peptone per liter of 1 [image] H2SO4.Keywords
