Rapid microbiological assay for chlorhydroxyquinoline that uses a cryogenically stored inoculum.
A rapid microbiological assay for chlorhydroxyquinoline is described. It is a turbidimetric procedure that uses Streptococcus faecalis as the test organism. Results are available within 5 h. Data are presented to show the advantages of using a cryogenically stored inoculum over an inoculum prepared on a daily basis.
