A study is made on influences of varying kinds of peptone on pigment production of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. For that purpose,7 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa which have been stored at the Department of Microbiology, Kansai Medical school, are employed; 9 kinds of peptone were tested.
Production of pyocyanin is favorable with Chapoteaut peptone, Witte Pepton and Polypeptone, especially with Chapoteaut peptone.
Production of melanin is observed with all kinds of peptone tested, especially favorably with Polypeptone, Chapoteaut peptone, Witte Pepton and Zoki-Kenkyusho (Organ Research Laboratory) peptone.
Production of fluorescin is observed with all kinds of peptone tested, especially shoa good response with Polypeptone, Arei peptone, Zoki-Kenkyusho (Organ Research Laboratory) peptone, Marukawa peptone and Uehara peptone.
