Abstract

SUMMARY

Phagocytosis of in tissue cell-cultures may protect it from the lethal action of bactericidal agents. Type reversal from avirulent to virulent gonococci was not observed. We believe that maintenance of type I organisms in tissue cultures is too tedious and that snap-freezing in liquid nitrogen is more convenient.
