Abstract
(1) A broth consisting of 1% Bacto-peptone and 0.5% NaCl at pH 7.5 is recommended for growth of M. lysodeikticus as substrate for lysozyme. (2) Cells grown and prepared by the recommended procedure were more susceptible to lysozyme than cells produced by other methods. (3) The rate of lysis of cells of M. lysodeikticus was affected by the concentration of NaCl used in the culture medium.Keywords
