Benedict et al. tested a large number of streptomycete cultures for their ability to utilize various sugars. A total of 147 strains of Streptomijces representing 75 species have V)een tested on 24 carbon compounds for their ability to initiate growth in the syn- thetic medium of Pridham and Gottlieb. Forty-one cultui'es w(>re tested also on dulcitol and on the .sodium salts of two or- ganic acids. Of the cai'bohydrates studied L-sorbose was not attacked by any species of Streptomijces, and erythritol and dulcitol were found to be of limited value in these tests. Relatively poor growth was attained on melezitose, soi-bitol, and esculin (Table 21). According to Stapp and Spicher, some.
