The antagonistic properties of three strains of Streptococcus mitis were investigated. They were found to inhibit a wide range of oral bacteria; Gram-positive and Gram-negative, facultative and anaerobic species being susceptible. The S. mitis strains were shown to be producing hydrogen peroxide, this being partially responsible for the aerobic inhibitory activity. A second inhibitory factor(s) was also produced, aerobically and anaerobically, although this could not be isolated. A limited characterization of this factor was undertaken using plate cultures.
对三株缓症链球菌的拮抗特性进行了研究。发现它们能抑制多种口腔细菌；革兰氏阳性菌和革兰氏阴性菌、兼性菌和厌氧菌均敏感。缓症链球菌菌株被证明能产生过氧化氢，这是其需氧抑制活性的部分原因。还产生了第二种抑制因子，无论需氧还是厌氧条件下均产生，尽管无法将其分离出来。利用平板培养对该因子进行了有限的特性鉴定。
