Summary

FREEZE-DRIED BACTERIAL SUSPENSIONS MAY SUFFER CONSIDERABLE MORTALITY DURING RECONSTITUTION TO THE WET STATE. COMPARISONS OF REHYDRATION AT SEVERAL TEMPERATURES SHOWED GREATER LOSS OF VIABILITY AT 318 K (45 DEG C) FOR LEUCONOSTOCS AND LACTIC STREPTOCOCCI, AND AT 273 K (0 DEG C) FOR SOME SPECIES OF LACTOBACILLI. THE MAXIMUM RECOVERY OF VIABLE CELLS WAS OBTAINED AT 293 K (20 DEG C).
