Sodium polyanethol sulfonate sensitivity of anaerobic cocci

M H Graves et al. Appl Microbiol. 1974 Jun.

Abstract

Growth of Peptostreptococcus anaerobius was shown to be totally inhibited by sodium polyanethol sulfonate (SPS). Other anaerobic cocci grew in the presence of SPS although some strains of Peptococcus prevotii and Peptococcus magnus showed delayed growth. A SPS disk assay for the presumptive identification of P. anaerobius is described.
