ABSTRACT THE preparation from yeast of a growth-factor for _Corynebacterium diphtheri_1,2 has shown the active concentrates to be complex mixtures containing amino-acids and peptides, one of
the latter yielding on hydrolysis serine, glycine and glutamic acid. Attempted removal of the reducing substances present by osazone formation led to destruction of the activity, and some
component of the mixture gave a positive reaction in the Elson and Morgan3 test for amino-sugars ; the colour produced was not, however, identical with that obtained with glucosamine, and
the conditions required suggested the presence of an acylated amino-aldehyde. With a mixture of such complexity there was nothing to indicate that these observations were interconnected ;
but certain speculative considerations based on the above led to the search for a relationship between the active extract and the inhibitory effect of penicillin on Gram-positive
micro-organisms. This search was encouraged by the similarity between certain of the components of the yeast preparation and the fragments obtained on partial hydrolysis of penicillin.
