Abstract
DR. HAPPOLD has shown us a copy of his letter criticizing the microbiological assay of riboflavin by our modification of the Snell and Strong1 method. Had his criticisms been raised against the assay of pantothenic acid using Lactobacillus helveticus or nicotinic acid using L. arabinosus (Snell and Wright2) we would have been in partial agreement, but as regards riboflavin assay they have no justification.
