Abstract
M. polymorpha was isolated as the etiological factor in a case of meningitis. The Mimeae are pathogenic for mice, killing in a few hours. The mouse inoculation served to revert cultures to high coccus/rod ratios after growth on media had produced high rod coccus ratios. Importance of cultural studies of real or apparent cpcci for identification is stressed.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
