HARRIS that the resultant arising from the added acid must always approach the line AB tangentially, when a constant amount of acid is being formed. Now let it be imagined that the accumulation of acids hinders the bacteria and causes their production of acid to fall off steadily in proportion to the concentration of acid present. The reaction resultants will then take the form. Fig. 6 shown in the second diagram (Fig. (3, II). We give the curves for three cases. In curve No. 1 the inhibiting influence is made slight

In curve No. 1 the inhibiting influence is made slight, in No. 2 more marked, and in No. 3 greater still. From a consideration of this imaginary fermentation one can now see how, from the reaction resultants, it can be estimated to what extent the acids have.
