Abstract
Infections of pitching yeast by Lactobacillus can be completely controlled in fermenting wort in 24 hr. in presence of neomycin (20 p.p.m.) or bacitracin (80 p.p.m.). The concentrations of these antibiotics required to combat Acetobacter would be too high to allow of their large-scale use under the present conditions of working.
