Pyrolysis gas chromatography of Streptococcus faecalis: effect of cultural conditions on pyrochromatograms
Abstract
Streptococcus faecalis 251 was cultured under a variety of different growth conditions, i.e. incubation for 24 or 70 h; at 22 degrees, 37 degrees or 45 degrees C; on blood agar or on MacConkey agar plates; aerobically or anaerobically. Replicate cultures were analysed by pyrolysis-gas liquid chromatography on columns of 7% Carbowax 2 M, TPA on Chromosorb G (AW-DMCS, 80-100 mesh) programmed from 40 degrees C up to 170 degrees C. Culture grown under identical conditions resulted in reproducible pyrochromatograms which were only slightly modified by change in temperature of growth from 37 degrees to 45 degrees C, or length of growth from 24 to 70 h, or growth on MacConkey agar instead of blood agar. Growth under anaerobic conditions resulted in a modified pyrochromatogram; while growth at only 22 degrees C resulted in a major change in pyrochromatogram.
