Summary and Conclusions

It is possible to produce changes in the cataphoretic distribution of streptococci by means of a high frequency electric field. Successive increments of exposure to high frequency energy produce cyclic or periodic changes in the cataphoretic distributions of the treated suspensions of streptococci. The changes produced in the cataphoretic distributions of streptococci exposed to a high frequency field are maintained in the subcultures of these organisms.
