Comments |
P.168 left column top paragraph: "Quantitative assays of antimicrobial activity require well-dispersed bacterial suspensions. Staphylococcal suspensions are especially difficult to prepare, and most reported methods are inadequate. The method reported here produces finely dispersed staphylococcal suspensions that give reproducible viable counts (pour plates) correlating well with spectrophotometric readings." P.168 right column bottom paragraph: "Typical results achieved by the application of this technique may be seen in Table 1. These data gave a correlation coefficient of 0.965." |
