The preparation of a medium that would allow the bacillus of diphtheria to grow and exclude all other organisms would be an ideal medium for those whose work is concerned with that organism, but, as such a medium has not yet been devised, we must be content with the modifications of the ordinary media which we possess. Various varieties of media have been prepared for the purpose of favouring the growth of B. diphtheriae, but very little seems to have been done with regard to selective media.
