Extract

1. In a preliminary investigation of the obligate anaerobic microflora of samples of ordinary farmyard manure and of Edelmist strains of Bac. sporogenes, Bac. bifermentans, Bac. tertius, Bac. tetanomorphus and Bac. saccharobutyricus were isolated and characterised.

2. Anaerobic decomposition of cellulose was observed in media inoculated from both of the samples of Edelmist examined.

3. For the cultivation and enumeration of the anaerobic bacilli in samples of farmyard manure the superiority of liquid over solid media was demonstrated. Of the liquid enrichment media tested egg meat and liver-liver broth proved to be the best.
