Abstract
A semi-solid mash containing 4-8% corn meal and 1-2% liver (dried and finely ground) required no seal or incubation in an anaerobic jar for growth of many "strict anaerobes" (e.g., thermophiles, soil butyrics, putrefactive and pathogenic forms). Compared with several common media, it proved superior for detecting small numbers of viable spores or vegetative cells. Its use in routine testing for anaerobes, dilution counts, cultivation of survivors from thermal death-time tests, etc., is therefore suggested.
