The nutritive requirements of atypical streptobacteria isolated from fresh meat were examined. Niacin and pantothenate were essential for all strains and some strains also required pyridoxal phosphate and riboflavin. Most of them were characterized by their great requirements for aminoacids and their failure to ferment many sugars compared with L. plantarum or L. casei.
