Synopsis

Excerpt from Physiologic and Serologic Studies of the Soft-Rot and Colon Group of Bacteria

Acknowledgment Acknowledgment is made to Dr. L. H. Leonian for cultures and suggestions, to Dr. R. S. Spray for cultures and guidance throughout, especially in the serolog ical work, to Wendell Henry for help and suggestions and to Dr. C. R. Orton for guidance and suggestions throughout the entire study.other six strains were intermediate, producing gas in at least one sugar but not in all three. Referring to this separation they report, Un fortunately this clearness of classification is more apparent than real, since practically each successive determination of the collection of cul tures led to a rearrangement of the representatives of the various groups with a gradual shifting toward the upper groups because of the greater importance placed on a positive result than on a negative one. The final accumulation of 33 cultures in the upper group is largely the expression of the continued action of the law of chance and had the study continued longer this group would undoubtedly have been correspondingly en larged. They concluded that Unless later studies of the pathogenicity of these cultures shalloffer a basis for subdividing them, there is no ap parent reason why they should not all be considered as somewhat variant members of a single botanical species.
