Routine separation of staphylococci from micrococci based on bacteriolytic activity production
Abstract
A new method is described by which separation of staphylococci from micrococci can be achieved in routine laboratory use. The basis of this method is that bacteriolytic activity is produced by staphylococci but not by micrococci.
