After the formula of a minimal medium of meningococci was given (7) it became possible to isolate biochemically deficient mutants of this organism. Earlier reports from this laboratory (8) have described such isolations utilizing the mutagenic effect of ultraviolet (UV) light with subsequent concentration of induced mutants by the modified penicillin technique of Gorini &/{auf man (4). The yield of mutants was very low, however, and more extensive investigations on the effect of UV light and penicillin were performed. Under the conditions employed, it lwcamc clear that the mutagenic t• ffect of UV light on meningococci was hardly detectable (14). Furthermore, the selective killing pffect of JWnicillin on growing and non-growing ct'lls of nwningococci in minimal medium is much less pronounced in this species than in
