Abstract
Live cultures of smooth streptococci that reacted positive to the "bactericidin" reaction killed 14 out of 16 rabbits within 10 days. Live cultures of streptococci that reacted negative to this test failed to kill 4 rabbits within 10 days. Killed ("Merthiolate") cultures of streptococci that were resistant to NaHCOs and hexylresorcinol killed 14 out of 17 rabbits within 3 days, while similar suspensions of strains that were sensitive to these 2 reagents failed to kill 6 rabbits within 6 days.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
