Excerpt from A Compilation of Culture Media for the Cultivation of MicroorganismsThe contributions relating to the various substrates and media used for the cultivation Of bacteria, yeasts, and molds, are widely scattered in the literature. Very frequently they are not adequately indexed. For some years it has been felt that a key to the various media and substrates proposed for the growth Of microorganisms would prove helpful. The fact that these formulae were not readily available has led to a great amount of duplication in the literature. A search Of the literature has therefore been undertaken and the formulae for about 7000 various media that have been proposed brought together. The task Of securing this material was performed most acceptably by Mr. H. W. Schoenlein, who was also associated in the development of the keys The task Of organizing the compilation, of planning the presentation, and of final editing was undertaken by Dr. Max Levine. It was found possible greatly to curtail the number of separate formulae by use Of the subheading Variants in many cases.The compilation presented in the following pages was made possible by a grant to the Society of American Bacteriologists by the Digestive Ferments Company of Detroit, Michigan. At the request of the Society of American Bacteriologists, the Department of Bacteriology at the Iowa State College accepted the task of compilation. The interest, helpfulness, and support Of the Digestive Ferments Company throughout the progress of the work cannot be too greatly appreciated.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
