In the routine laboratory examination of specimens of faeces and urine, from time to time certain Gram-negative bacilli belonging to many different groups are encountered, which morphologically show no appreciable differences from the Gram-negative bacilli of the coli-typhoid group, but which however ferment the usual carbohydrate media employed in differentiation with the formation of acid only. Some ferment lactose quickly, others more slowly, and many not at all, but as with the other media no gas is formed. These organisms might be considered as belonging to the so-called B. coli anaerogenes group— a somewhat loose term which might include many different strains, some perhaps related to the colon group, others belonging to and related to the group of dysentery bacilli, and others showing no relationship to either.
