title: [Bactericidal activity of sea water and its microvibrio content].
abstract: The bactericidal effect of sea water on E. coli varies according to the location and depth of specimen. There are seasonal variations. With the elimination of the bacilli, tiny vibrios appear. Two strains have been isolated and kept alive with bacteria suspensions in sea water. A method to quantify them in culture or in sea water has been developed.
