Abstract

Summary: Because of adsorption phenomena, copper sulphate solutions containing traces of protein are less toxic to bacteria in droplets than to similar bacteria in large volumes. With dilute phenol solutions the reverse was found. The quantitative results suggest that the non-flagellate organism studied moves with about 25 times the energy of Brownian motion.
