Abstract
AFTER the simple and reliable proof was given of a nuclear substance of desoxyribose type in bacteria by Robinow‘s method, a number of authors followed its physiological changes with regard to the growth-cycle of bacteria1–3. We have tried to determine the effects of chemical substances, which in higher organisms act on the nucleus and its division, on the nuclear substance of desoxyribose type and its physiological cycle in bacteria.
