ABSTRACT
The result of the work recorded in this paper, showing the retarding effect of salt on the media defined, would suggest that salt concentrations, as usually found in Roquefort cheese, may retard but not inhibit the growth of the mold of either strain.
With Wensleydale cheese, where the percentage of salt in the cheese is lower, the salt would not be expected to be an important inhibiting factor.
The failure of culture 16 to grow as well as culture 1 in Wensleydale cheese must be accounted for by other factors than salt.
