![BACTERIOLOGY OF CHOLERA. PLATE XII. [Note.—The drawings in this, as in other plates, VII. to XII. inclusive, represent stab-cultures in gelatine of the comma-bacilli obtained from different samples of cholera material examined by me in 1893. These drawings enable comparison to be made, as regards rapidity of growth and liquefaction of the gelatine, between comma-bacilli from the different sources. The gelatine medium used was in every instance of precisely the same composition, and in all the subcultures depicted the contained comma-bacilli were an equal number of removes from the raw material whence they were derived. The gelatine medium was inoculated in each instance by a single stab, and all the subcultures were incubated at 20° 0.—E.K.] Fig. 26 (a). North Bierley (2); No. XLV. (a) in the text of this report.
