TWO LYTIC FACTORS INVOLVED IN INDUCED SYNERGISTIC HEMOLYSIS IN NORMALLY NONHEMOLYTIC STAPHYLOCOCCI.

abstract：:We investigated an osmotic remedial mutant of Saccharomyces which was deficient in galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase. Both the rate of growth and the transferase activity of the mutant culture were dependent on the osmotic activity of the growth medium. Organic and ionic solutes proved to be equally effective i...
