AB - A FURTHER INVESTIGATION OF THE RESPONSE OF LEUCONO­ STOC TO NICOTINIC ACID AND RELATED COl\1POUNDS STEWART A. KOSER AND GEORGE J. KASAl From the Department of Bacteriology and Parasitology and the Walter G. Zoller Memorial Dental Clinic, The University of Chicago, Chicago 37, Illinois This report is an extension of an the casein hydrolyzate medium pre­ earlier study which dealt with certain viously employed. It was found that unusual aspects of the growth response apparent inability to make use of ordi­ of Leuconostoc to nicotinic acid and re­ nary vitamin amounts of nicotinamide is lated compounds. It was first reported common to a number of Leuconostoc by Johnson! that Leuconostoc mesenter­ group organisms and that this mayor oides 9135, though requiring nicotinic may not be coupled with inability to acid, did not respond to ordinary grow in the presence of DPN. A number amounts of rucotrnamide or nicotinuric of other experiments dealing with the acid. It was found by the writers! that effect of surface active agents, "adapta­ of 6 Leuconostoc cultures which needed tion" through successive transfers, nicotinic acid for prompt growth in a methylene blue reduction tests, and the casein digest medium, two of them response of
