Rapid growth now occurs in the heated casein while in the filtered heated casein the generation time is reduced by nearly one-half and the population at the end of the logarithmic growth phase is in- 11 < ased from around 1,600 to over per nil. The maximum yield is increased from ahout 5,000 to approximately 100,000 per nil. and a much higher population is maintained for at least 11 days (over 50,000 as compared to 2,000 per ml.) (Table.
