The authors dealt with the identification of a strain of thiazole decomposing bacteria in the preceding paper and concluded that the organism belongs to a species of Pseudomonas group. The reaction for sulfate ion was positive in the culture of 11 days incubation of the named strain and in 25〜35 days culture showed the lowest optical density at 250 mμ. The optimal pH for the thiazole decomposition was 8.0〜8.3. As for the thiazole decomposiag activity there was no significant difference between the bacterial line passed at 18℃ and 37℃.
