Abstract

DURING recent years a number of investigations have been published on the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) content of different types of microbial cells. Lark and Maaloe1 have thus studied the synthesis of DNA in normal and temperature-synchronized cultures of Salmonella, and Petras2 has determined the nucleic acid content of normal and filamentous cells of Proteus vulgaris. Wachter and Spoerl3 were unable to detect significant differences in the nucleic acid content of different cell forms of Ustilago sphaerogena.
