Tetanus bacilli with spores in distended ends. X 1100 diameters. Biology. An anaerobic, liquefying, motile (though not very actively motile) bacillus. Forms spores, and in the spore stage it is not motile. It does not grow at temperatures below 14° C, but grows slowly at tem- peratures from 20° to 24° C, and best at 37° C, when it rapidly forms spores. It will not grow in the pres- ence of oxygen or carbon dioxide gas, but grows well in an atmosphere of pure hydrogen. The bacillus of tetanus grows in ordinary nutrient gelatin and agar of a slightly alkaline reaction. The addition to the media of per cent, of glucose causes the development to be more rapid and abundant. It also grows abundantly in alkaline bouillon under an atmosphere of Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Park, William Hallock, 1863-1939; Guerard, Arthur Rose, 1851-.
