title: New Method of Screening for Pressure-sensitive Mutants at High Hydrostatic Pressure.
abstract: We have developed an efficient method of screening to detect pressure-sensitive mutants of barophilic or barotolerant bacteria using conventional agar medium plates. By this new method, 75 colonies can be screened per plate under high hydrostatic pressure.
