ABSTRACT
Growth inhibition, agglutination, precipitation, and passive hemagglutination tests were used for the identification of the L-forms of streptococci isolated from the organism of experimental rabbits both after the infection with the L-forms of streptococci and with the streptococci of group A. The tests were positive not only with the antiserum of homologous, but also of heterologous strains of the L-form of streptococcus, group A. The L-form cultures isolated from the experimental animals failed to differ from the laboratory strain of the L-forms of streptococcus, group A, by serological properties.
