Abstract
Thirteen streptococcal strains and 117 lactobacillus strains have been isolated from the predominating Gram-positive rumen flora of cattle and sheep suffering from acute indigestion due to overeating. Twelve of the streptococcal isolates proved to be amylolytic and showed physiological properties characteristic of Str. bovis. The remaining strain was found non-amylolytic and resembled Str. inulinaceus. The 117 lactobacillus isolates were identified as follows (number in brackets): L. brevis (40), L. fermenti (22), L. bifidus (45), a variety of L. delbrueckii (10).
