The extreme delicacy of many sci

report of DR.. Martin Flicker, a Ger.

feeted favorably, or otherwise. by the
character of the glass containing the
water in which they are suspended.
Marked differences in the behavior of
cholera germs were noted, according
to the kind of glass composing the
vessels used. The degree of alkalinitJ
impaired by the glass to the water is
believed to be an important factor In
these experiments.
