E. McCoy's comment on experiment writeup

"Your summary is a very good idea and all too unique in a class of this type"  ,  E. McCoy

Experiments

  1. Cultural characteristics of certain lactics
  2. Morphology and staining of typical lactics
  3. Effect of temperature of incubation and of presence or absence of CaCO3 as limiting factors on lactic fermentation
  4. Production of lactic acid
  5. Production of products other than lactic acid by heterolactics
  6. Isolation and testing of a high acid-forming lactic
  7. Differentiation between lactic and propionic bacteria
  8. Isolation of Acetobacter species from natural sources
  9. Study of Acetobacter spp., known cultures and isolates
  10. Identification of Acetobacter species
  11. Sorbose from sorbitol by oxidation by A. suboxydans
  12. Enrichment of butyl and butyric anaerobes
  13. Isolation of butyl/butyric anaerobes (from experiment 8)
  14. Stock culture preparation (spores on sterile soil)
  15. Comparison of certain historical butyl/butyrics with your new isolate
  16. Corn fermentation by Clostridium acetobutylicum
  17. Anaerobic retting
  18. Antagonism between Weizmann bacillus and certain lactobacilli
  19. Degeneration, evident upon serial transfer of Cl. acetobutylicum in corn wash
